I was browsing some gold notes yesterday when I learned that Valaurum, the company that makes Goldbacks, also makes some legal tender notes for a handful of countries.
I also learned that Valaurum has an online retail outlet, The Gold Domain.
They don't sell the Goldback notes there but they have some of the other products they make in the shop.
Here are the legal notes they produce.
They have a page in the shop called, "Gold Stacks", 😍
How about this stack of 100, 1 gram notes?
ON SALE :D 🙃
There is actually a limited selection of notes at this site and the shipping is $15 minimum, so I won't be ordering from them any time soon.
However, I did find some really interesting ifo in the faq.
For instance, where does the gold used in Goldbacks and other Aurum notes come from?
"The manufacturer of all Aurum®, Valaurum, sources gold from the same refineries that the US government uses. All of it is traced conflict free and has an audited chain of custody with a significant proportion of it being recycled gold. We’re actively looking at ways to offer both artisanal gold and fully recycled gold in the future."
Cool!
How about, can anyone request a custom designed gold note?
"Yes. Custom designs are fulfilled by the manufacturer of Aurum®, Valaurum. They produce Aurum® for a variety of purposes including commemorative pieces and legal tender. Custom Aurum® are an ideal way to print licensed artwork. Currently, there is a 500g minimum order on custom designs. You can submit an inquiry on Valaurum.com."
Awesome!
500g minimum xD
Current gold spot per gram is about $93 * 500g = $46,500 for your own custom designed gold note. Not that I could ever do this but I would love to know the details of a 500g custom gold note order. Fun!
Have a golden week :)
I like the African ones!
Of course you do.. aren't you from Kenya originally?
These are pretty cool but damn, that's a lot of money you need to spend on these custom notes lol
!PIMP
Wonder how much it is total for a custom stack? (shipping and blablabla included) Some 'PIMPbacks' would be hella sweet.
Would be awesome for sure
What could the markup above spot be? 50%?Here's the inquiry form if you really want to know https://valaurum-wholesale.com/pages/custom-design-inquiry free to fill out.

That would be !PIMP

I like gold, I imagine a banknote made of this material with selected designs, it would be fantastic.
You and these gay notes. Just buy tiny gold bars instead.
Gold any day! Valaurum makes some cool stuff don't they?

No, as much as I talk about these I don't have very many, the premium IS crazy. If my state had a set and I could use them for commerce I'd have a bunch for sure.
