gold plating on smart/sim cards

I guess I'm asking is there anything inside the card or just the small gold plated surface that u can see.
Thanx once again in advance for all the answers. I enjoy hearing responses from all the smart ppl on here, I have learned a lot.
And I want to appolize in advance if there is a thread about this and I have missed it. Maybe someone can help me out on where to look
Thanks again

I believe we have a buyer for the whole sat card on the forum. Pays a buck a piece I believe. Dont cut them up. He buys for resale.
