<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1368062, member: 22143&quot;]Yeah another gotcha.&nbsp;&nbsp; It does indicate plated, but you have to know that&nbsp; HGE = Heavy Gold Electroplate.&nbsp;&nbsp; Heavy means, I think, a minimum thickness of 100 millionths of an inch.&nbsp; He lists &quot;8-22k HGE&quot;.&nbsp; This means the plating solution isn&#039;t pure gold but somewhere between 33% - 91% gold.&nbsp; I&#039;d guess it&#039;s closer to the 33% end of things.&nbsp;&nbsp; How much?&nbsp; Who knows.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I suspect these coins have far less gold on them than even that 1 grain bar above.&nbsp; &nbsp; It should be noted that even the cash4gold places won&#039;t take HGE items.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Ebay really should set some standards for selling gold coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
