Are you talking about the die cracks on the reverse? They are cool, but I don't think they add much in the way of value.

The coin only grades Fine-VF, which is a low grade for a U.S. gold piece. The die breaks on the reverse and neat, but they add nothing to the value. As for what it's worth, that would be melt, given the high price of gold bullion which exceedes the numismatic value of a worn gold piece like this. Since a $20 gold piece contains a little less than an ounce of gold, this piece would be worth about the spot price on an ounce of gold bullion.

Likely due to die wear, this is also quite common and carries no premium.

Pretty much spot on. No pun intended. Sometimes you can get a bit more than spot if you shop it around. Good luck!
