2025 Florida 10 Goldback – A standout the ALPHA Series?
As I come towards the end of showcasing my Florida Goldback ALPHA series, I can’t help but marvel at the craftsmanship, detail, and concept behind these beautiful pieces of spendable gold.
The 10 Goldback note is a standout—not just for its size, weight, or design, but because of the statement it makes. While all Goldbacks are legal, voluntary currencies made with real gold, there’s something about the 10 denomination that commands attention and respect within a stack. It’s not just a novelty or collector’s piece—it’s a conversation starter, a symbol of value, and, for many stackers, a goal.
The entire Florida ALPHA series has been designed with incredible care and creativity. Each denomination showcases a different virtue and theme relevant to Florida’s rich and diverse history—from pirates and pioneers to faith, freedom, and fortitude. The 10 Goldback continues this tradition, with a stunningly intricate design that practically shimmers with meaning as much as it does with gold.
Holding this note in hand is a visual treat. The artistic detail is crisp, the layering of images is dynamic, and the use of real gold brings it all to life in a way no other currency ever could.

Let’s be real here—while Goldbacks are negotiable instruments, they do come at a premium over spot. That’s the trade-off when buying something that combines intrinsic value, portability, and design excellence. But it’s also the very reason why not many people have the 10 Goldback in their stack.
The higher the denomination, the more gold is embedded in the note… and with that comes a steeper price tag. It’s not every day a stacker adds a 10 Goldback to their hoard, especially with premiums considered. But when one does—it’s a proud moment.
That’s why mine is staying firmly in the perma-stack, alongside the rest of the Florida ALPHA series. It’s more than just a piece of gold. It’s part of a broader vision of what money could be—tangible, beautiful, meaningful.
Some might look at Goldbacks and think of them purely as collectibles. But for many of us in the stacking community—especially those of us watching fiat currencies weaken year on year—they represent a potential future. A system where value is once again backed by something real. Where art and utility collide. Where you don’t need to trust a government to know your money is worth something.
Would I trade in a 10 Goldback for a loaf of bread or a coffee today? Probably not. But I’m glad I have the choice. And I’m glad I’m part of a community that sees the beauty in real money—not just for what it buys, but for what it represents. Long live the Goldback, and long live the #silvergoldstackers community...
