When you are on https://www.bitaddress.org, try sweeping the QR code private key on the left, if it does not work try the one on the right

<p>I found the solution!</p>

<p>After browsing through the addresses in the Electrum wallet, I looked for all addresses that have non-zero Tx value. I found the one holding BTG in the last address of the list located in Addresses>change>Used , it was the last one of them. And indeed that is the one showing up in the history of the last transaction of my wallet , in its detail's input tab.</p>

<p>View private key in that address , and then scanning from Coinomi, using "Sweet wallet got me the last amount before the fork of my wallet in BTG</p>

I had the same problem. The default filter in the addresses tab is 'receiving'. None of those, including the non-zero-transaction ones, had any Bitcoin Gold. But changing the filter dropdown to 'change', and then checking each of those non-zero addresses (using https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20gold/ ), worked. Two of the addresses between them had the number of BTG that I was expecting. Thanks!

I assume now it wouldn't be worth?  Even if I had 1 BTC before the split?

<p>bitaddress.org will not accept electrum private keys, saying invalid key version 133 not supported.</p>

<p>electrum only gives one private key per address.</p>

When I say "private key" I dont mean "electrum's private key", I mean the private key associated with your Bitcoin address. This is independent of the wallet you are using, and you should be able to export it, all wallets allow it (I dont know electrum so I cannot help on this one)

electrum provides only one private key per address, nothing independent as you say

Obviously there is one and only one private key per address, and yes the private key is wallet independent, otherwise you are not talking about private key but something else

Perhaps the issue is that BTG uses a different address format than BTC? This means that the addresses you held coins in before the fork need to be translated to BTG first?
