If it is genuine and not a reproduction you probably did very well depending on what you paid for it. Even if it is a copy at least it is real gold. Can you post a picture of it?

how did i do ?

I dont think you mentioned what you paid.

 

[Messick81]

i paid $110.00 for it

At 2.2 grams of 18K it is about $52.00 melt value, if it is 24K it would be about $70.00. If it is an authentic coin you probably did ok. You can check on ebay and see what they are selling for, there are several different ones listed.
