2 Oklahoma Goldbacks, Aurum Gold Foil Note 24k

The new 2 Oklahoma Goldback Series of Aurum gold notes.

Goldbacks are a novel form of currency that blends the timeless value of gold with the practicality of paper money. Goldbacks are crafted from a thin layer of 24-karat gold instead of cotton and linen like traditional currency. The 2 Goldbacks note holds 1/500 troy ounce of pure gold.

The Oklahoma 2 Goldback embodies the virtue Benevolentia, or Kindness. At the centre of the scene stands a Cherokee mother wearing a traditional tear dress and beaded headband. The woven basket in her arms overflows with the bounty of the land. In the distance, a second mother tends the harvest with a papoose on her back, symbolizing the intergenerational nature of teaching and nurturing.

Above the figures, a branch of Oklahoma’s state tree—the Eastern Redbud—arches over the scene. Flowing behind the figures is the Illinois River. Dugout canoes glide across the river, illustrating the deep Indigenous connection to water. Nearby, an Asi house represents both architectural ingenuity and communal life. Footprints in the soil quietly allude to the Trail of Tears, one of the most painful chapters in American history. A rainbow arches overhead, symbolizing healing, hope, and a better future. Oklahoma today is home to 39 federally recognized tribes, each with a distinct heritage. This artwork was shaped with the input of cultural advisors and artists from several Oklahoma tribes, including a registered Choctaw artist who suggested the theme.

This Goldback reminds viewers across the world that Benevolentia is more than kindness: it is a way of life. The enduring truth, “The greatest strength is gentleness,” appears at the bottom of this note.
