I didn't really buy these for the "bullion" but more for the artwork. That being said, there is a whopping 1/250oz of gold in the 5 Goldbacks and 1/1000oz of gold in the 1 Goldback. Let's see some other unconventional "bullion" if you have them
Whoops. You’re right. Dunno how I biffed that.... Either way, I didn’t pay much over the melt value of the gold so I am happy with them.
I bought a batch of gold infused notes at a show in the fall for gag gifts for my friends. They contain some infinitesimal fraction of gold but the portrait is of a current controversial figure so I’ll refrain from posting an image. They were a hit at Christmas though.
So, the only way these can be worth anything is to place a stack of a couple thousand of these notes into a crucible, and burn off the paper to get the gold melt value?
From what I understand, they are an “alternate” currency. Some stores in Utah accept them along with US cash.
Lol I wore my socks of the certain figure, ugly sweater party too. Yuuuge hit! Of course I’m guessing who it is, but I’m fairly sure I’m right.
For some reason, a particular fruit from Georgia and an old Colt single-action army pistol come to mind. Or is it Billy Dee Williams in a beer commercial?
The old BEP souvenir cards of plate prints are an affordable way to collect some beautiful old currency images at a fraction of the cost of the 'real deals' - they also make great gifts for youngsters to get them interested in US history and numismatics as well
