Anyone know gold coins too?

Thanks all - I really appreciate it.

Does anyone know of any reliable jewelers who I could bring these to to test the gold AND get the total weight in gold?

Would any jeweler be able to do this?

• Jewelry Store
• Pawn Shop
• One of those "We Buy Gold" Places
• Coin Store

Any of the above places can test it for you.

But you would not go by the total weight. The coins are 90% gold, the bezels and chains are more than likely 10k (41.7%) or 14k (58.3%) gold. You would factor the bezels separately from the coins.

I can tell you the coins weigh 4.18 grams each and only 90% of that is gold.

4.18 X 2 = 8.36 total grams
8.36 X .9 (amount of gold content) = 7.524 grams of actual gold

Based on this gold estimator, with gold @ $1920 per ounce, you're looking at $418 in melt value (not including the bezels). But, as someone already stated, these are worth more than melt value assuming the coins are ok.
