This not a product of the US Mint and has no numismatic value. Unfortunately the best place to check for the value of this is eBay.
It's made of brass, not gold plated, and it's only worth face value in circulated condition.
Only 25 cents, unfortunately. Lots of companies sold plated Bicentennial coins as "collectibles" but as soon as the Bicentennial was over, interest plummeted and the secondary collectors' market pretty much dried up.
The U.S. Mint did not produce any gold dollars for the bicentennial. There are aftermarket examples of gold plated dollars but they are just regular production coins which have been gold plated. They have no added numismatic value and their actual value is limited to the value of the metals in them .
Gold plated, but not gold. Loads of private companies took ordinary Bicentennial coins, plated them with gold or silver, and sold them as "collectibles". But once the Bicentennial was over, the market tanked so they have essentially no value except as curiosities. It would actually cost more to recover the gold plating than you would get from selling it.

These are not made by any US mint, and have no numismatic value. If the coins are silver and not silver plated, the value would be for the silver in the coins.
$1 or more.

They are not gold plated, they are brass. They do not contain any gold whatsoever.
Depends a lot on who made it and what condition it is in.

None are plated by the US Mint, some may have been plated as novelty coins.
A numismatist who collects coins.
