Gold certificates aren't "on" bills. They were bills themselves and were backed by an equivalent amount of gold on deposit with the US Treasury. You could take one to a bank and receive that amount of gold in return.
To clear things up, you won't find any gold certificates in change. The last gold certificates were issued in 1928, and five years later the US withdrew both them and gold coins from circulation. Any current bill you have, regardless of its denomination, will be a Federal Reserve Note.
In any case a gold certificate would be easy to recognize. Most of the ones issued in the early part of the 20th century, and all that were issued in 1928, have the words GOLD CERTIFICATE on them, and the seal and serial numbers are gold-colored.
