Is there a gold Bicentennial Ike dollar in gold?
No Bicentennial gold Ike dollars were ever produced. There were some made in 40% silver composition for mint and proof sets (and I own one), but none in gold. Any gold Ike dollar is just a regular coin that someone plated in gold. You might find an ordinary Ike with a gold-colored patina, but that’s just toning and it’s not actually gold.
