Goldback notes by state are distinctive pieces of alternative currency featuring a thin layer of real gold set between protective polymer layers. Each regional series combines precious metal content with artwork inspired by the state’s history, landscape, and cultural identity. The Utah Goldback series was the original release, followed by Nevada, New Hampshire, Wyoming, and South Dakota Goldback notes. Available denominations commonly include 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 Goldbacks, with the denomination indicating the amount of gold used in the note rather than a traditional paper-money face value.

The Goldback currency concept is intended for voluntary exchange among participating users, and Goldbacks are not issued by the federal government or recognized as United States legal tender.
