The only base gold I can think of at the moment is Japanese pre-Meiji, & most of that has sizable numismatic premiums. I have a Tempo-era Nishu Kin, which is 1.62 grams, 298 fine gold (balance silver). It was pretty cheap back around 2005 when I bought it.

All gold is good as long as it is purchased with debt free dollars

There are some Mexican Revolutionary pesos that contain mostly silver with 0.3 grams of gold (it's stated on the coin). I can't remember where I saw these in the Krause Mexico entry, but from the price guide, worn ones aren't particularly valuable above melt.

...Never mind, I ran and got my Krause North America guide. KM #641, 0.3 grams gold, $20 in VG. It's from 1915-ish.
