I know of no St Gaudens produced by the mint that is that small.
On the second paragraph: ".. an authentic replica..."
3.2 grains is 2/3 of 1% of a ounce. So at the 10K claim, its worth about $3 in gold

The numismatic market place will determine if it is successful or not.
I will not be one of the determinants.

Wow, ive never seen the packaging before. I bought a lot at auction a couple years ago that had a few of those in it loose as well as a few miniature mexican gold coins like them. If I remember right I got around $40 a piece for them

Ok cool, so it is Gold, but any value will be for collectors who want the miniature as artwork or something, but not for the Gold content.

@CAscade, yeah I couldnt find any on ebay. It says "1907 Saint Gaudens $20 Gold Piece" just above where my picture cut off.

Google "mini liberty gold coin" if I remember right I got sites claiming they were anywhere from 9k to 22k to no gold at all.
