To commemorate America’s 250th anniversary of independence, Goldbacks has introduced a special one-time issue Washington D.C. Goldback. Washington D.C. was formally chosen as the national capital under the Residence Act of 1790, an agreement that was largely influenced by Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. This commemorative note features America’s earliest female allegorical figure, Columbia, as the main design element. Right now, 1 Colorized Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Notes are available from JM Bullion.
Note Highlights:
Each 1 Colorized Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Note comes housed in a protective currency slab with a GEM sub 70 grade, indicating a note with exceptional visual quality with no flaws visible without the aid of magnification. Under magnification, barely visible or slight imperfections in centering may be present.
Washington D.C. was established from territory contributed by Maryland and Virginia along the Potomac River and was intentionally positioned between northern and southern states. President George Washington personally chose the location and commissioned Pierre Charles L’Enfant to design the layout of the new city, which was eventually named in Washington’s honor. In 1800, the federal government officially relocated from Philadelphia to the new capital, although Washington D.C. remained largely unfinished and underdeveloped for decades.
The obverse of the Colorized Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Note depicts Columbia standing in the foreground, while the U.S. Capitol Building can be seen in the distant background. Columbia is often shown holding symbolic items that reflect national ideals and American character. In this traditional imagery, her shield and sword carry distinct meanings. The shield represented defense, the protection of liberty, and the nation’s determination to preserve its independence and democratic principles against threats from within and beyond its borders. The sword symbolized strength, military preparedness, and the willingness to fight for freedom and justice when required. Together, these elements presented the United States as a nation dedicated to protecting its liberties while also being prepared to act when its values were placed at risk.
