The Oklahoma Goldback series is a negotiable instrument containing actual 24K gold layered within a durable polymer substrate — physical gold in a spendable, tradeable format. The 2 denomination carries 1/500th of a troy ounce of 24K gold and represents the lowest entry point in the Oklahoma Alpha series. The artwork depicts a serene riverside community scene rooted in Oklahoma’s Indigenous heritage, rendered in the fine-art engraving style that defines every note in the Goldback program.

The obverse carries one of the most intimate compositions in the Oklahoma Alpha series. In the foreground, a young Native American woman kneels with a young girl beside her, both focused on sorting what appears to be a harvest of small fruits or berries laid out before them in a woven basket. Their traditional dress, braided hair, and beaded adornments are rendered with careful, respectful detail. Behind them, additional figures work along the water’s edge, and a canoe with a paddler moves across the calm river in the middle distance. On the far bank, thatched dwellings and vegetation suggest a settled, productive community at peace. Cattails and riverside plants frame the lower foreground, grounding the scene in a lush Oklahoma landscape. A caption at the base reads “The greatest strength is gentleness.”
The border is framed in the series’ gold ornamental pattern, with the denomination 2 in each corner. The GB Alpha 2025 seal and Goldback.com appear in the lower left field alongside the series identifier OK2025. At the base, bold text confirms 1/500 Troy Ounce 24K Gold, with the statement that the note is exchangeable by Goldback Inc. to US Gold Coin to Bearer on Demand. The note carries US Patent Pending status and is identified as a Negotiable Instrument.
