- (0.0549 oz) of 24-karat .9999 Fine Gold
Produced by Valaurum Mint, Aurum in Portland. The Florida Goldback series represents a voluntary, circulating currency containing and composed of physical 24-karat gold. Celebrated for its thorough denomination range and a profound celebration of feminine allegorical virtues. Each note functions as a fractional band of wealth, specifically engineered to withstand everyday handling and spending.
Bonding Process Microscopic layers of .9999 fine (24K) gold are physically deposited and sandwiched between durable, transparent polymer layers.
Material Composition This specialized polymer encapsulation protects the pure gold from abrasion and wear while preserving the note's flexibility.
Florida Goldbacks incorporate advanced, counterfeit-proof security measures that are virtually impossible to replicate without industrial-grade minting equipment.
Ultraviolet (UV) Reactive Ink: A hallmark of the Florida series, specialized UV ink reveals hidden holographic artwork and glowing details when exposed to a UV penlight.
The Blue Light Test: The vacuum-deposited gold is incredibly thin. When you hold a Goldback up to a light, the background will appear blue because the gold allows blue light to pass through while filtering reds and oranges bandwidths.
Complex Gold Matrix: A dense, intertwining matrix of gold and ink runs through the design, perfectly aligned on both sides of the polymer.
Raised Reverse Imagery: Strategic textures are raised on the back of each note.
Microprinting and Serial Numbers: Intricate text and unique serial numbers are stamped directly onto the gold layer itself.
