This would be a physical change.
Forming a bar of gold into wire is a physical change, not a chemical change. In this process, the gold undergoes a change in shape and physical state, but its chemical composition remains unchanged.
When a gold bar is shaped into a wire, the gold's chemical properties do not change. Only the physical appearance changes when gold is changed in shape. Thus, this is an example of a physical change.

You are not changing the gold into anything else, so it is merely a physical change.

It is a physical change (melting).
Pounding a gold coin into a different shape would probably not effect a chemical change. If, however, the pounding produced enough heat to meal the coin, some chemical change could take place.
There is no chemical change necessary to form a gold nugget into a ring.
Panning (for gold) is neither of the above.
it's a physical change.
In a chemical change a substance undergoes a change in chemical composition. The appearance of the gold was changed in this case and not chemically combined with other elements to form new substances. Thus, this change is a physical change.
