Value of 2008 Five Dollar Gold Coin

The 2008 $5 gold coin is pretty much just valued for its bullion. All that means is that the value of the coin will change based on the current value of gold. This coin weighs a tenth of an ounce. So you can divide the current price of gold by ten to get the precious metal value of this coin. Collectors refer to these as AGE or American Gold Eagles. The United States Mint issues these coins every year. The only change is just the year; everything else is exactly the same. It doesn’t matter if the coin is dated as 2008, 1991, or any other year – you will always see the same features.
