8-3-11>>> I know they sold on TV for $19.95 + $7.95 S & H, but this stuff has no numismatic value at all. The only value it has is to some one that wants it. Even with gold at $1,666.60 per ounce, this piece likely only has 10 cents worth of gold on it.

There is No gold IN the coin, it has been gold PLATED so the gold is ON the surface of the coin. A 10 Mil 24K Gold-clad Proof COPY of a 1933 Double is plated with 10 millionth of one inch of pure gold. Even at current record high gold values, it has maybe 5 cents worth of gold plating.

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.
