LEGO 71001-19 Mr. Gold is a Minifigure Series set from Series 10 released in 2013, containing 8 pieces and 1 minifigure. Produced in a limited run of 5,000 worldwide, the figure was randomly inserted into Series 10 blind bags as a chase character. The minifigure features a gold-colored finish and comes with a display stand and accessories.

To mark the 10th series of the Collectible Minifigures line, LEGO supported a registration campaign on LEGO.com where finders could log their Mr. Gold, place a pin on a world map, and receive a certificate.

A new and sealed Mr. Gold is currently valued at around $9,441. The average used price is $3,440 for those in good overall condition. We forecast about 10% growth next year, which would put it near $10,348. The 1 included minifig account for approximately 89% of the set's total value.

“Lego decided to commemorate the 10th Series by including Mr. Gold, a “super rare”, excruciatingly hard to find minifig into random boxes of Series 10, which sparked a global gold rush among Lego fans, eager to get their hands on Mr. Gold. Only 5,000 of the chrome gold... More painted minifigs were created.”

“Besides the customary 16 minifigures in the series there is also Mr. Gold – an elusive little guy that was randomly inserted into full boxes of the Collectible Minifigures and only 5,000 of them have been made. Kids and collectors are encouraged to hunt for Mr. Gold – which... More obviously meant to create extra buzz around the series.”

About Minifigure Series Series 10

Minifigures Series 10 (71001) came out in May 2013 with 16 minifigures and one extra, Mr. Gold, a gold chrome figure in a top hat. Only 5,000 Mr. Gold figures were made, hidden at random among the packs around the world, so finding one came down to luck. He was the first chase figure in the Collectible Minifigures line and became one of the most hunted minifigures LEGO has made.

Series 10 was introduced in 2013 and currently consists of 20 sets. As of today, Mr. Gold is the most valuable Series 10 set with an estimated new/sealed value of $9,441.
Summary
Minifigure Series Series 10 Mr. Gold set 71001 was released in May 2013, retailing for $3, but has since been retired. New, unopened Mr. Gold sets are valued at $9,441, while used sets can be found for $3,440 in good condition.

Rumor has it that somewhere out there is a very special Minifigure known as Mr. Gold. Shining and golden from the top of his tall top hat to the tips of his toes, he may be discovered in all sorts of unexpected places, but he never seems to turn up exactly when and where you’re looking for him. According to legend, Mr. Gold will bring you luck if you happen to spot him… or is it that you’ll need to have a lot of luck to find him? Either way, everybody wants to find the mysterious Golden Minifigure – but only a fortunate few will succeed!
