Design & Symbolism
The obverse of the 100 Arizona Goldback Gold Note portrays Libertas, the embodiment of liberty and freedom, watching over Navajo Code Talkers as they raise the American flag over Iwo Jima. This design honors the Navajo Marines whose unbreakable code, developed in their native language, played a pivotal role in securing American victory in the Pacific Theater of World War II.
Using their language’s complex syntax and tonal patterns, the Code Talkers created an encryption system that could transmit vital military messages in seconds—messages that were never deciphered by enemy forces. Their bravery and innovation became one of the most extraordinary contributions in U.S. military history.
The background showcases the red rocks of Window Rock, Arizona, an iconic natural sandstone arch that serves as the spiritual and administrative capital of the Navajo Nation. Chosen as the site for tribal government headquarters in 1936, this sacred formation remains a powerful symbol of strength, vision, and cultural identity for the Diné people.
