Goldbacks - Interesting Designs - Veritas and Libertas

Hello everyone,

I wasn't sure if this fit better in the Paper Currency forum or maybe it should of been created in the Bullion Investing category?

Here are 25 Goldbacks of different denominations I acquired a bit at a time.
Before the price of gold went up.

There are some cool designs..... I been seeing booths set up at coin shows with goldbacks. I reckon I need to pay some more attention to them.

 

There are definitely some cool designs, but I guess I don't really get the point. Does anyone actually spend or accept these in trade?

The only one I have is a Florida One Half that came free with my order from Apmex.

 

Oh, I love that South Dakota piece!

 

Wouldn’t it be something if the U.S. Mint came out with designs similar to the goldbacks, complete with embedded ag and/or au?

 

I really like the design on some of these. I picked up some in the past year. The Franz Frazetta images were really appealing to me.
