Best Answer

At most a few milligrams, not enough to make it worth trying to recover.

Plus, the coin itself is copper-nickel so it's only worth 50 cents.

Gold plating adds no value when it comes to coins and indeed is a form of damage. A gold plated coin is worth the same as a damaged example of that coin. For example, a gold plated 1964 half dollar is worth the $7 in melt that a normal damaged 1964 half dollar is worth. A gold plated 1971 half dollar is worth 50 cents just like a damaged 1971 half dollar is worth.

Gold plated, but not gold. A private company took an ordinary 1968 half dollar and plated it for use in jewelry or as a so-called "collectible". The underlying coin is made of 40% silver so you could sell it for $2.50 or so, but that's about all. No circulating coins have been made of gold since 1933.

50¢. It's not real gold. It's plated. Your coin is an ordinary copper-nickel half-dollar issued by the billions in honor of the country's Bicentennial. Private companies plated them with a thin layer of gold and sold them at inflated prices as "collectibles". However they're considered altered coins and have little or no collector value.
