"The Brasher Doubloon" title
The film "The Brasher Doubloon" is a pretty good 1940's detective mystery.
I have a writeup about the film on my website under "Coins in Movies".
I first saw the film on television when I was a kid. It is now on DVD.
The film is based on a Raymond Chandler novel "The High Window" published in 1942.
The story was also filmed in 1942 as "Time to Kill".
Walter Breen (in his Encyclopedia) said that the coin in the 1947 film "The Brasher Doubloon" was a fake.

I was so disappointed.
