Question
I was wondering what a 20 Dollar Gold certificate would be valued at in good shape. Thanks papajack.

Answer
Hello David,             
 
The condition and rarity for the condition are the big factors.I must start by letting you know U.S. Currency is not my field. I don't have a price guide for your piece. Since grading paper is so involved, the easiest way is to let a dealer or local shop take a look at it.  Notes cannot be properly evaluated without seeing it. I can give you a list of conditions and a range of value for it.     
The 1928 Gold Certificate came with and without a star in the serial number.
It lists for 100 to $150 without the star in lightly circulated grades and hundreds in Crisp-Uncirculated condition.
With the star "*"  it is much more valuable. from $300 to $2500 or more depending on its state of preservation.

I hope this information helps. Please remember to rate this answer. And check the nomination box on the rating page below any comments you may have.

Good Luck
