I keep all the gold plated ones I find, but I'm not sure of how much gold is actually on them. Worth saving though.

So little it doesn't increase the value at all. In fact, some coins are worth less if they are gold plated.

A guy at my local flea market was selling them for 5 bucks each. I knew it wasn't worth much over face.
