I'm sorry to say "not much." Unofficial plating of a coin destroys its collector value, and the gold put on is usually so thin that it adds no worth to the piece. If these are silver coins then they have intrinsic precious metal worth, but you have to be careful here--US quarters, for example, are issued in both silver and ordinary clad proof versions for collectors. Ordinarily I'd expect people to gold plate the cheaper coins, and then sell them for huge markups. Television advertisements offering gold plated or gold replica coins are terrible investments, and quite often legitimate coins can be bought directly from the US mint at prices far below what are asked for on TV or in magazine advertisements. Always do research before buying--if the deals were so good they wouldn't be selling them!
