I am trying to determine if the coin I have is authentic. it was given to me aout 15 years ago and never thought it could be authentic until recently. any info would be greatly appreciated.

Gold is a heavy metal. Chances are, replicas will be made from cheap, light base metal with a gold plate. If your coin is less than 33 grams, it's probably fake. Also, check the size.
