Article is wrong. There are about 31 grams in an ounce of gold. So this coin is worth about $31.68 today.
I think they confused grams and grains. But even that would be a little off.

The nominal value (of any coin, actually) is not the actual (material) value, but just some arbitrary amount that’s stamped on one side of the coin. The actual value here is just over $3, not $31.
