text: This again depends on the coin itself for starters. Most jewelers or pawn shops will not buy something like that at the cost of gold as they would have to refine it, which costs money and/or time.... Maybe you could get 60% od spot price of total weight of gold, now remember that the kt also plays a factor.... such as 14kt gold is only just over half percent pure gold....if you have a half ounce and its 14kt, with gold at $700 per oz figure 60% of $350 if you are lucky and find the right place. You may wish to try a coin shop as the coin itself may have its own value beyond the gold... Good Luck
