The American Eagle Gold Bullion coins with the denomination of $5 are 1/10th ounce of pure gold. Current market value is about $163.00.
None of the gold colored dollar coins made from 2000 to date have any gold in them. Only a few error coins and collectors coins have more than face value.
depends on value of gold - at about 1300 / oz the coin (which is 1/10 oz gold content) is about 140 dollars
10 cents for the copper-nickel coin underneath and about a penny or 2 for the gold plating. The US never minted gold dimes - they'd be worth A LOT more than 10 cents, after all!
It's gold-colored but not gold. All modern circulating $1 coins are made of brass and are only worth $1. They're intended for spending, not hoarding. A couple of billion ("B") have been minted since 2000.
My guess would be that it was plated with gold (or a gold-colored metal) after minting, and that it is thus worth about a penny.
The US has never made a gold penny (or cent). Your coin has either been plated (maybe with gold, maybe it's a gold-colored bronze) or it has been affected by some chemical. Either way, it is worth one cent.
The date of the "gold colored penny" is needed. Post new question.
1 cent. It's plated. The US has never made a gold penny.
There was never a gold half penny issued by the U.S. Mint.
no such coin
It's not real. It's a novelty item that sells for a couple of bucks in stores. I have a big one that I use in my office as a coaster.
1¢ It's either plated or has been exposed to a chemical that changed its color. That's a frequent experiment in high school chemistry.
No such thing.
Modified coins have no collector value.
Sorry! It's worth a penny. It's only gold plated which doesn't add any value to the coin.
Canadian cents, including the 1974, are copper colored, because they're made of or plated with copper. If you have a gold one, then someone other that the Royal Canadian Mint coated it with something else.
