Depends on its weight and current gold value in whichever country it is.
You can weigh it and work it out and that would be the minimum price and a collector would pay more.

I agree with what has been said,You can view it from a scrap point of view or what a collector will pay.Your pics are not the best quality so will do my best?.
Looks to be of hollow construction? so you are probably looking at under 5 grams in weight.It would scrap between £20.00 to £40.00.If the condition is good with no major dings or dents you should aim for between £75.00 to £100.00 in the collectors market.Now we all know about the website for this type of thing.on there you could add far more.Best of luck & please this is just MO. regards Gary

If a hole has been drilled at approx,6oclock this will effect the collectors value downwards.The hole would probably have been drilled for a saftey chain to go through. regards Gary
