It's not gold, just gold-plated. The gold itself is so thin that it would cost more to remove than you could get by selling it, so the coin is just a curiosity worth only 5 cents.
If you think about it for a minute, with gold at $1100 to $1200 an ounce, a nickel's worth would be so tiny that you'd need tweezers and a magnifying glass to see it!
50 cents. It is considered a altered coin and is worth only face value.
The U.S. half dollar has never been made of gold. What you probably have is a gold-plated 1979 half-dollar. It's not really worth much above face value.
A 1980 Half Dollar struck for circulation has no value above 50 cents.Only high grade mint state coins are more than face value at $1.00-$1.25 retail
Around 500 dollars

The gold plating adds nothing to the value of 50 cents.
In 1943 half dollars were made of silver not gold. Yours is only gold plated. The value is still about $9 for the silver it contains. The gold plating does not add any value and in some cases can destroy any value you have.
It's worth 50 cents.
Unfortunately the added gold does not increase the value, but it's still worth about $10.00 for the silver.
It is only gold plated which adds no extra value. Since it is a gold plated coin it is considered altered and is worth face value.
About $4.50 for the silver. The gold plating adds no value and collectors will view it as damaged. However, a 1967 half dollar is 40% silver and is a common date only worth silver scrap.
The US has never made a gold half dollar of any date, it's likely been gold plated take it to a coin dealer for an idea of value.
