A gold clad coin isn't pure gold; it's a core of a different metal covered with a thin layer of gold. The gold layer can vary in thickness. It's not as valuable as solid gold coins but still has a gold appearance.

What is the price of gold clad a ounce?

The price of gold-clad items can vary significantly based on factors like the underlying metal's market value, craftsmanship, and brand. Gold-clad typically refers to a base metal coated with a thin layer of gold, rather than pure gold. As of October 2023, the price of gold itself fluctuates around $1,800 to $2,000 per ounce, but gold-clad items are generally much less expensive, often costing a fraction of that amount. For an accurate price, it's best to check current market listings or retailers.
