I'm not sure there would be enough interest to warrant a restrike in gold especially given the size on a $5 or $10 would be small compared to the fifty cent silver. And it's not like the originals are scarce.

It's interesting that the 2001 restrikes of the 1855 Kellogg slugs are in the $70k range given that the originals are not especially rare. Of course, the originals are even more expensive.

This PCGS XF45 Oregon Ten has a Price Guide value of $280,000, and PCGS doesn't list any MS coins, so I think there's some room above bullion value for MS restrikes.

No real movement as of now. I have the gold sourced, but due to Covid the OHS is flush with relief money and are slow boating.

I think Dan Carr did some pieces in gold using a die that Lakesammman owned a few years back. Seems it was an Oregon $10 die.
