The 5 Utah Goldback is a beautifully designed and fully functional form of voluntary local currency, struck in ultra-pure 24-karat gold foil. Produced using advanced Aurum® technology, each note contains 1/200th of an ounce of 99.99% fine gold layered into a flexible, spendable format. Lightweight yet visually stunning, it serves as both a collectible piece and a practical tool for everyday trade.
To ensure durability, each Goldback is encased in a protective polymer coating, allowing it to be circulated, handled, and exchanged without risking damage to the embedded gold. These notes are intended for use just like cash among participating merchants in Utah, providing a unique, gold-backed alternative to traditional currency. Should an owner prefer, each note can even be melted down for its pure gold content.
The 5 Utah denomination is legal tender only within the state of Utah, recognized by businesses that support sound money principles and alternative exchange systems. As a portable, divisible form of gold, Goldbacks offer convenience, real value, and inflation-resistant wealth storage that can be used in everyday transactions.
Featuring artwork by Cheri Jensen, a renowned Utah-based artist, this note showcases Veritas—the Virtue of Truth—portrayed as a Utah pioneer woman. Her depiction pays homage to the 1847 migration that brought the first settlers to the Salt Lake Valley, giving the note deep cultural and historical resonance. Its combination of symbolism, beauty, and real gold content makes it a standout piece for collectors and gold enthusiasts alike.
