Gold-plated, but not gold. All circulating 1974 half dollars, like every other date since 1971, are made of copper-nickel and have no special value. The gold plating would cost more to remove than you'd make by selling it, and in any case it's only a few atoms thick. But you still have an interesting conversation piece even if it's only worth 50¢.
