Not much I'm afraid. You can purchase them from a dealer or on eBay for about $2 per cover or even less. They have almost no real gold, such a thin layer that it would take thousands of them to get a measurable amount.

Actually, it could be worth more than that. Check the reverse and it may say something like: "22k gold electroplated on sterling silver" or "24k gold electroplated on sterling silver".
Each of these can stamps weigh anywhere from 5 grams to 20 grams of 92.5% by mass of silver. So, do you calculation and could easily add up, a 20 grams stamp is about $21 at current silver prices ($35.45/oz)
Best wishes
