Best Find ever out of a School Wood Chip Box...!

[Cool Hand Fluke]

I detected an elementary school in Sacramento and found what I thought was a gold coin attached to a gold chain! The chain and coin are both 24K solid gold. Took the coin to a coin shop and the coin shop guy said it was a "gold coin facsimile". Close, but not quite a gold coin!

Got a weight on that "24K solid gold"? If true, who care's whether it's "real" or not?

Total weight from my scale is 17 grams. That's about half an ounce! $600.00!
