{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}To mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, Goldbacks has released a special one-time Washington D.C. Goldback.

This commemorative design highlights Columbia, one of Americas earliest symbolic figures, creating a meaningful tribute tied directly to the nations history. Right now, 1 Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Notes are available from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Each 1 Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Note is delivered in an individual currency sleeve, while quantities of 100 are grouped together using a bundle strap. This one-time release honors the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026 and offers collectors a distinctive piece tied to this historic celebration.
Design
The obverse of the Washington D.C. Goldback Gold Note showcases Columbia in the foreground, with the U.S. Capitol appearing in the background. Columbia is traditionally shown carrying a shield and sword, each representing core American principles. The shield reflects protection, liberty, and the defense of democratic ideals. The sword represents strength, readiness, and the resolve to protect freedom when challenged. Together, these elements present a balanced symbol of Americas values and responsibilities.
History
The land that became Washington D.C. was donated by Maryland and Virginia along the Potomac River. Its location was chosen to serve as a compromise between northern and southern states. President George Washington selected the exact site and commissioned Pierre Charles LEnfant to plan the city. While the federal government officially moved from Philadelphia in 1800, development of the city progressed gradually over the following decades.
