It is worth its weight in gold. Gold is worth about $1335 an ounce but your ring is probably less than an ounce and is not pure gold but maybe 14k.
It is worth whatever the gold price is. I'm assuming you have a US 1 oz gold eagle. If you do indeed have a one ounce gold eagle it is worth whatever 1 troy ounce of gold is worth. At the time of writing your coin would be worth about $1350. However, the price of gold fluctuates on a minute by minute basis.
That isn't a real "coin" but instead is known as a private "round" which is essentially just a gold bar in round form. These rounds are only worth their gold content which at the time of writing is about $145, but changes every day depending on the price of gold.
$1 - $100 depending on the coin if it is a $100 coin it is worth $100 if it is a 50 cent coin.

A troy ounce is about 31 grams and the US standard ounce (avoirdupois) is about 28 grams. When buying coins, or gold or silver, you get more by getting a troy ounce. The price of gold and silver is in troy ounces. So, for example, if gold is $1400 an ounce, that price is for a troy ounce. A 28 gram ounce of gold is not worth $1400.
It is worth it's weight in gold. 1/10th of an ounce of gold (Jan 2010) is $132.
