Experience a revolutionary form of spendable gold with the 1 Arizona Goldback 1/1000 oz 24K Gold Foil Aurum Note, now available for live price comparison through Bullion Hunters. Containing 1/1000 troy ounce of 24-karat gold, this beautifully designed note is not just a collector’s piece — it’s also a form of voluntary local currency accepted by participating merchants throughout Arizona. Crafted using innovative Aurum® technology, each Goldback embeds real physical gold between durable polymer layers, creating a flexible, lightweight, and visually stunning way to own and use pure gold.

The 1 Arizona Goldback highlights “Temperentia,” the Latin word for “Temperance.” This virtue honors the era of Mexican influence in Tubac after 1821, celebrating the harmonious blend of Indigenous, Spanish, and Mexican cultures that together shaped Arizona’s unique identity.

At the center of the artwork stands a graceful woman in traditional attire, positioned before the historic Mission San José de Tumacácori. Surrounding her are symbols of Arizona’s desert flora, fauna, and cultural emblems, representing balance, moderation, and unity between nature and spirit. Drawing inspiration from Galatians 5:22–23, the design evokes the passage: “The fruit of the Spirit is temperance.”

The obverse of the note features these intricate artistic and symbolic elements, while the reverse remains blank, subtly reflecting the front’s design to preserve the note’s radiant appearance and integrity.
