How much AGW is in those tiny 24k gold "coins"?

Do you know the "coins" I am referring to?

I have some R. Reagans. They are maybe 8mm diameter and .25mm thickness.

    without certification from a reputable source, hard to say. Stick with quality gold.

    No, I would not want to buy one.

    I have one given to me as a gift and was just curious if it now has any value. Apparently worth at least $25, if the bid is legit. I'll put it on my watch list & see if it goes any higher.

    My guess...approx 1/2 gram or about 1/62 troy oz. Or 5 grain

    Don't forget that most are only 8K and they are paper thin.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I was thinking of those miniatue Saint Gaudens replicas. Most are low grade gold or plated gold. This one may be better but I would still pass on it.

    I don't see the weight listed anywhere. Anyone know what these weigh? Probably struck on a paper thin planchet.
