50 Utah Goldback Gold Note

The 50 Utah Goldback Gold Note is part of the innovative Goldback Series - a unique, physical option for everyday transactions while also appealing to collectors.

The obverse showcases the virtue Libertas, or liberty, through the historic Golden Spike Ceremony held on May 10, 1869, at Promontory Summit. On this day, the nation’s first transcontinental railroad was completed, forever transforming the nation. Libertas drives the final blow to the legendary golden spike, her belt adorned with the Utah state seal. The UV layer uncovers a band with the state flag around her left arm and a California gull flying above. Behind her, a steam locomotive resembles the historic Jupiter train. This pivotal moment demonstrated the very essence of liberty—opening the land, uniting people, and expanding freedom across the continent. Written across the bottom is the enduring principle: “Proclaim liberty throughout all the land.” —Leviticus 25:10.

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.
