It's gold plated, but not gold. The good news is that 1942 is a common date for Walking Liberty halves so you can still sell it for its melt value of $5-7 as of 07/2010.

In any case, a gold half dollar would have been about the diameter of a pencil eraser, and no gold coins were made for circulation after the US went off the gold standard in 1933.
