Best Answer

The US stopped making circulating gold dollar coins in 1889.

If your coin is large, has a picture of Miss Liberty and a sun on the front and a perched eagle on the back, as you can see by looking under the eagle it's a HALF dollar. In that case your coin is a normal 90% silver half dollar that was plated with gold or brass.

The bad news is that the plating destroyed its value as a collectible. The good news is that the underlying silver is still worth about $5 (in early 2010) as scrap metal.
