There are many different factors that affect value of any collecters item but the value of $20.00 gold certificate from a quick swipe over the current ebay listings shows that they are going for anywhere between $80-$500.

The $20 Gold Certficates that are going for the higher prices tend to be things like the rare 1928 Star Notes Gold Certificate and a 1928 Gold Certificate XF grade.

If you are looking to sell a more common note then it is by no means unreasonable to expect around $100 or so and ebay is full of bidders and people willing to snap up your certificate. Or indeed if you are looking to buy there are plenty of 1928 Gold Certificates of all values available and you’ll find the value of $20.00 gold certificate is very reasonable as so many people are selling so if you wait you can get a great price.

Here is a little background about the Gold Certificate in general.

The gold certificate was in use from 1882 all the way through until 1933, so don’t fall for anything outside of these dates! It was only used in the USA and was a kind of paper money that was tied into the exact amount of Gold that it represented.

Strangely between 1933-1964 it was illegal to have these notes but that law was lifted in order to allow collectors to legally possess them.

That’s interesting isn’t it!
