The 1 Utah Goldback solves gold’s oldest problem: how to spend it in small amounts. Each note contains exactly 1/1000th of a troy ounce of 24 karat gold layered inside a durable polymer bill, creating a specie legal tender instrument under Utah law. It gives stackers fractional gold below the price of any coin and hands collectors a genuinely beautiful piece of currency art.
Key Features:
- 1/1000th Troy Ounce of 24K gold in each note
- Utah specie legal tender instrument, exchangeable by Goldback Inc. for US gold coin to bearer on demand
- Obverse: Prudentia, the virtue of prudence, seated beneath a twisted tree with a wolf
- Reverse: the full design mirrored through the translucent gold layer
The obverse presents Prudentia as a seated frontier woman in a landscape of red-rock arches, her hair braided, resting beneath a gnarled tree as a wolf stands at her side and birds cross the sky above. A banner reading PRUDENTIA curves beneath her, with the motto Deal Prudently inscribed nearby, casting prudence as the guardian of sound money. UTAH GOLDBACK crowns the note, the numeral 1 marks the corners, serial and date details run along the margins, and the base states the contents plainly: 1/1000th TROY OUNCE 24K GOLD. The reverse shows the same scene in reverse through the note’s gold interior, a signature of the vacuum-deposition process that locks the precise gold weight between protective layers.
Each note arrives new in crisp condition. The Goldback’s polymer construction resists moisture and handling, so notes can be carried, traded, or stored flat without special care.
Goldbacks turn gold into walking-around money, and the 1 denomination is the series’ most affordable entry point. Order the 1 Utah Goldback today and put spendable gold in your wallet.

Love these, so cool. Got one of each to start. Must see up close to catch the details. More substantial than I expected them to be. Can’t wait to get more. Came in a plastic sleeve thanks for that – thumbs up 😎 👍
