The word "copy" is the giveaway. Copies of extremely valuable coins are generally made from a base metal plated with a small amount of gold; they're sold as "collectibles" on TV and in magazine ads.

Numismatists aren't usually interested in copies of real coins, and the gold plating is usually so thin that it would cost more to remove it than its value to a scrap dealer. But if you aren't interested it the item as an investment it can be an inexpensive way of owning a replica of one of the most famous American coins ever struck.

What is the value of a 1933 20 dollar gold eagle coin?

In 2002 a 1933 double eagle sold for over $7.5 million. However, not every 1933 double eagle floating around is going to be worth that much. The reason is that other than the 1933 double eagle sold in the 2002 auction, no other 1933 double eagle is legal to own. No 1933 double eagles were released for circulation, however 445,500 were minted and all were supposed to have been melted down. Some though escaped the mint and the US Secret Service has seized nearly 20 coins that had escaped the mint because they believe that they are still technically the government's property. The reason one 1933 double eagle is legal to own is because the US government issued an export certificate for it in 1933 to allow it to be exported to Egypt before realizing that no 1933 double eagles had been released for circulation.
