Some people like to plate coins. I have several gold plated coins myself that I've found. They aren't worth much if any over face because there is very little gold on them.
I have a 2005 nickel that is plated on both sides and, I don't know how you'd do this, maybe with gold leaf, one that is plated on just one side. Whoa.
