As usual, the good doctor is correct as far as he goes.
A pawn shop would give you perhaps half of the value of the gold. A coin shop would pay closer to 90% of the gold value (assuming that they have a ready buyer), plus pay some extra for the value of the coin as a collectible.
By the way: Coins of that period were never 24K. Pure 24K gold is too soft to be used for circulating coins. Most British gold coins were 22K (91.7% gold), and all US gold coins of the period are 90% gold.
I'm sure you have heard this before, but you would be much better off selling a truly rare coin on eBay.
If you contact me with more details about your coin, I can give you more specific information.

it would depend on exactly what year and condition - go to a coin or jewelry dealer - they will give you more than a pawn shop would
