Unless it has an O mint mark, about $300 for its gold content. If it's a 1909-O, it's worth about 2.5X as much as a collectible coin.
A 1884 $5 gold coin (aka - Coronet Head Half Eagle) is worth in fine condition (F12): $250; a 1909 $5 coin - aka Indian Head Half Eagle - is worth in extra fine condition (EF40): $425.00.
Its value will fluctuate with the price of gold, but as of 11/2008 has been in the range of $250 to $500 depending on how worn it is.
The coin has .12094oz of pure gold, the coin is worth $165.40 just for the gold.
A 1909 Half Eagle can be worth well over $500.00
about 1,400
Well, it would have to be a nickel (5 cent) because the Indian head gold coins were discontinued in 1933 and the Indian head penny in 1909.
0.018 in the us dollar currency.
If the coin is actually made from gold, it will be worth whatever the gold content is worth. If it is a coin of gold appearance, it will maybe be worth whatever you paid for it.
Assuming the coin is circulated and has no mintmark, retail values are $324.00-$444.00 depending on the grade.
