Read this thread. It is about processing TO-5 transistors which I think is the same thing you have. Most of the gold is on the inside.

Working backwards, the gold spot was $940/oz when that thread was written. Therefore, you can multiply the numbers by 1.31 to get today's values, with a spot of $1230/oz.
