Why is a u.s. gold currency worth more than the stated amount?

My friend recently began to invest in commodities. He bought a $50 USD gold coin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Buffalo_%28coin%29) for somewhere around a thousand dollars. My question is why has society determined that this $50 gold piece is worth more than 50 dollars. I’m confused because gold is valuable because of its material properties (doesn’t rust etc.) but once the U.S. government mints the coin or prints the money it doesn’t matter what it is or what it is made of it has the value that is printed on it. A $100 bill is worth 100 even though it is printed on the same paper as a $1 bill and it seems to me that a $50 coin should be worth $50.

Wouldn’t it be easier for Barrack Obama to just bomb the United States then spend us into currency collapse?

Which is easier:
Hussein Obama blowing $2.6 trillion dollars a year to create no jobs, build no roads, or do anything he promised or $1.4 trillion more then the United States takes in per year causing the collapse of the dollar.

Or Just blowing up all the factories, permanent jobs, and everything else our country has left?

Economics question on low currency and exporting?

Why does currency when it’s low in value help bring up a countries exporting?

For example the euro went down to the dollar and the euro went up. Chinese keep their currency low and are major exporters.

I’m not seeing how this works. Maybe someone could help explain the logic behind it?

Thanks
So what about when a country has to import the materials to manufacture a good with a devalued currency?

Say metals, glassware, textiles, etc.

Wouldn’t that mean more of B for A?

Sorry still failing to see it
