The Design

It is standard for all Golback Notes designs to showcase a feminine figure representing a virtue. The Florida 1/2 Goldback Note presents Spes, which in Latin translates to hope and refers to the Spanish conquistador kneeling before the legendary Fountain of Youth, embodying humanity's timeless quest for renewal and endless potential. 

Set in a tropical landscape, the scene honors Ponce de León’s 1513 voyage, Timucua culture, and Florida’s history as home to St. Augustine. Symbols of perseverance and transformation, like the mockingbird, the Zebra Longwing butterfly, the Florida Cracker horse, and a conch shell, complement the theme, celebrating the principle, “Blessed are the meek.”

The “1/2” monetary denomination is on top, beside the inscription “FLORIDA GOLDBACK.” The note’s weight and metal content are at the bottom.

The note displays design elements on the obverse, keeping the reverse blank and only mirroring what was imprinted on the obverse.

Goldback Notes

A Goldback note is a voluntary regional currency accepted as payment in specific locations within the United States. Utah, Nevada, New Hampshire, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Florida are states that have issued goldback notes. 

These notes hold no dollar legal tender. However, they are valued as a bullion item because of the 24k gold paint applied to a plastic film. 

Despite being shaped like regular currency notes, they range in weight from 1/1000th oz to 1/20th oz, and their denominations, which can vary from 1/2 to 100, are proportional to the amount of gold they contain.

The year of mintage may vary based on currently available supply.
