Dallas Fort Worth 1/1000 Troy Ounce 24K Gold This collectible gold note features a detailed tribute to the Dallas Fort Worth metropolitan area, containing 1/1000th of a troy ounce of .999 fine 24-karat gold. The design utilizes Aurum technology, which sandwiches a thin layer of pure gold between two layers of protective polyester, creating a flexible, bill-like appearance with a brilliant metallic finish. The front of the note showcases a stylized cityscape featuring iconic landmarks like the Reunion Tower, complemented by western-themed imagery including longhorns and a "Y'all Street" sign. It is explicitly labeled as "Powered by Goldback," indicating it is part of a series of private gold-backed currencies intended for barter or collection rather than official US legal tender. This unique piece combines modern numismatic technology with regional Texan pride, making it a distinctive item for precious metals investors and local history enthusiasts alike. Condition: The item appears to be in uncirculated, original condition with sharp corners and no visible signs of folding, creasing, or tearing. The high-resolution printing and the metallic luster of the gold substrate remain clear and vibrant. Mint: This item is produced by Valaurum under their Aurum brand and is "Powered by Goldback," as indicated by the text on the note. Metal Content: The note specifies it contains 1/1000th Troy Ounce of 24K Gold. This gold is atomized and deposited between protective polyester layers using a proprietary vacuum deposition process. Historical Context: This is a modern numismatic collectible or "gold note" featuring the Dallas Fort Worth skyline. It is part of a contemporary trend of creating micro-fractional gold bullion items that are marketed for their portability and artistic value. The note explicitly states "Privately Issued Not US Legal Tender." Strike Type: This is not a traditional struck coin. It is manufactured using a physical vapor deposition process where gold is layered onto a polymer film, followed by high-definition graphics printing. Grading: The item is ungraded by a third-party service but presents in a condition consistent with a "Gem Uncirculated" designation for paper-like currency.
