Made of gold!
I popped it out of what looks like a commemmorative cover. Is it worth anything? I keep it in my album right next to my C3 non inverted jenny.

There is really not much value. This has been touched on before on this forum. If you want to more about this please check your commemorative cover. It should have a name on it, maybe Franklin Mint? Put that name in the search box above and you will get some opinions!

When gold was pushing $2000/ounce we looked into the gold 'stamps' like those. We calculated the gold value of each was in the neighborhood of $0.17, but couldn't figure out how the get the gold separated from the paper. :)

I already knew it wasn't worth much-but it looks cool to fill that hole next to my C3 regular- or just use one of those commemorative $2 ones that I have an entire sheet of!
