If it is the genuine mint product, yes, it is worth the value of gold in them. It is worth at least $1,422.50 at the time of writing because that is the value of the 1 troy ounce of gold, however, American Buffalo coins (which is what I'm assuming you are referring to as it has a face value of $50) trade at a higher premium than spot price, however, these premiums change based on collector demand and what year and condition so I can't accurately tell you for sure what the premium is.
However, beware of TV sellers selling "non-monetary" copy coins, these coins will say "COPY" somewhere on them, these coins are essentially worthless, contain a -tiny- amount of gold plating (as in, it would cost more money to remove the gold plating than the gold is worth), have absolutely no collector demand and make absolutely terrible investments.
The U.S. Mint on October 6th announced that the tentative release date for the 2009 Gold Buffalo Bullion Coin would be October 15th, and that the tentative release date for the 2009 Gold Buffalo Proof Coin would be October 29th.

The golden buffalo is worth $50.
The 2006 American Buffalo $50 gold coin was the first US coin to be struck in 24k gold. Other mint issue gold coins, $10, $20 etc are aproximately 21k, containing 90% gold.
With the exception of the .9999 fine Gold Buffalo $50 coin, all American Gold Eagles are 91.6% pure gold.
its a buffalo head. its always worth at least $50 (Fifty Dollars)
It isn't. The $50 dollar denomination is artificial. Gold buffalo coins are bullion coins whose price is based on the amount of gold they contain. However by law all US coins, even bullion coins, must carry a denomination. Because gold prices change daily, it's not possible to use a "real" denomination that reflects the coin's exact gold value. Instead, an arbitrary denomination is used based on the troy weight of each coin.
No. This stuff is only plated with a very thin layer of gold.
These are bullion coins sold for their gold content. The $50 denomination is purely artificial. Their actual value varies with the price of gold. As of mid-2014 standard issues retailing for about $1400 and deep-cameo proofs go for $50 more.
