Dallas Fort Worth 1/1000 Troy Ounce 24K Gold This Dallas-Fort Worth collectible gold note contains 1/1000th of a troy ounce of .999 fine 24-karat gold, expertly encased within a durable, flexible polymer film to protect the precious metal content. The front of the note showcases a vibrant, high-detail landscape featuring the iconic Dallas-Fort Worth skyline, including landmarks like Reunion Tower, along with the "Y'all Street" moniker as a nod to local Texas culture. Produced using proprietary vacuum deposition technology by Valaurum under the Aurum brand, this piece is part of a regional series powered by Goldback. It features complex security printing with microscopic detail and a semi-translucent reverse side that reveals the golden texture of the note. While not legal tender, these notes are highly sought after by numismatists and precious metal investors for their fractional portability, unique regional artwork, and innovative metallurgical craftsmanship. Condition: The item appears to be in uncirculated condition, showing no signs of folding, creasing, or physical wear. The edges are crisp and the surface remains flat. There is a small adhesive sticker with the number 113 on the top left corner of the note, which is an external addition and not part of the original manufacture. Mint: The item is produced by Valaurum, as indicated by the ARUM logo on the bottom left corner. It is powered by Goldback, a manufacturer specializing in flexible gold currency notes. Metal Content: The note contains 1/1000th Troy Ounce of 24K Gold. This gold is vacuum-deposited between layers of polyester to create a durable, flexible, and metallic foil note. Historical Context: This item is a local currency note issued for the Dallas-Fort Worth area in Texas. While not legal tender in the traditional sense, it is part of a movement to create voluntary local currencies backed by physical gold. The design features the Dallas skyline and the Reunion Tower, representing regional pride and the historical use of gold as a medium of exchange. Strike Type: This is not a traditional struck coin but rather a polymer-protected gold foil note produced using proprietary vacuum deposition technology. The detail is rendered through a high-resolution printing process onto the metallic surface. Grading: The item is ungraded by any professional third-party certification service but maintains an appearance consistent with a mint-state or choice uncirculated grade.
