10 Utah Goldback Gold Note

The 10 Utah Goldback Gold Note is part of the innovative Goldback Series - a unique, physical option for everyday transactions while also appealing to collectors. Crafted with .9999 pure 24-karat gold using advanced production techniques, each note blends beauty, history, and practicality. This product contains 1/100th Troy oz of .9999 pure gold.

The obverse showcases the virtue Aeternitas, or eternity, illustrated through the 1991 discovery of the Utahraptor near Moab. The Utahraptor is one of Utah's most celebrated prehistoric discoveries. Aeternitas represents the endless passage of time and the enduring story of creation. Inscribed on her cuff are the Alpha and Omega symbols, as sand slips through her fingers, symbolizing time's constant flow. An hourglass stands in the forefront to remind us that every age eventually gives way to another. Overhead, a falcon soars while the UV artwork reveals pterodactyls flying through the ancient sky and a living Utahraptor in the distance. In the foreground, a blooming yucca plant thrives in the harsh desert. Together, these symbols highlight the deep passage of time and remind us that while civilizations rise and fall, the story of the earth continues. Written along the bottom is the enduring principle: “Life is eternal.”

Goldbacks are a modern 24K gold currency. Goldbacks are created with patented technology that atomizes 24-karat gold down to 1/1000th of an ounce. The gold is then layered between two polymer sheets. A standout security feature introduced in 2025, this ink reveals hidden patterns or markings when exposed to UV light—making it simple to authenticate each note quickly. The reverse features a tactile, embossed—or raised—negative image that improves authenticity and makes the design harder to duplicate. Ultra-fine printing and complex imagery on the reverse deter counterfeiting and reflect craftsmanship that parallels security-grade currencies. Each Goldback includes a unique serial number and the precise fractional gold content (in thousandths of a troy ounce), aiding traceability and verification. Goldbacks are crafted via a proprietary vacuum-deposition process. This gives a genuine gold glint that’s virtually impossible to replicate synthetically, adding another layer of inherent security.
