The density of gold is 19.3, which means that one litre of gold weighs 19.3 kg. So, the volume of 1 kg of gold is 1/19.3 litres.

Fill a cylindrical glass container that is accurately calibrated with volume lines, and is large enough to completely hold the gold, with water. Immerse the gold in the water.
Measure the water that is displaced: that is the amount by which the water level increases. The volume of water dispalaced equals the volume of the gold.

Pure gold has a density of 19.32 g/cm^3
(1 kg)(1000 g/1 kg)(1cm^3/19.32 g)
= 51.76 cm^3
