I am it is note a gold note depending on what you mean it is not a gold printed note its a red print the only other way it would be a gold note and if it is it will say in small print can be redeemed at any bank branch for gold just like a silver cert so if you could put a pic of the righting on the bill we would know but I do like your note and will be bidding if it is a gold cert it should go for hole please put pic I would be great for you auction if you did
