Symbolism & Design:
The obverse of the 25 Wyoming Goldback showcases Fideletas, meaning Loyalty. She is depicted as a Wyoming ranch girl waiting for her groom, dressed in simple wedding attire with a bridal wreath. She holds a lit oil lamp in one hand and a cruse of oil in the other, symbolizing preparedness and devotion. The inscription “Faithful to the End” reinforces the theme of unwavering loyalty.
Alpha Goldbacks are the first Goldbacks produced in a new series, marked by a small α (alpha) symbol next to the mintage date. The Wyoming Alpha Series is a limited first-edition collectible, with only a few manufactured. This rarity, combined with the distinctive Alpha symbol, makes them highly sought after and valuable among collectors and investors.
- Grand Teton Mountains and the Chapel of the Transfiguration, a historic log chapel built in 1925, serve as the backdrop, representing faith and tradition.
- The oil lamp and cruse of oil draw inspiration from the parable of the ten virgins, symbolizing preparation and dedication to one’s commitments.
- A faithful cattle dog lies at her feet next to a loaf of bread, a bottle of wine, and a bowl of salt, each representing Christian themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and purity.
- A cow in the background represents abundance and blessings that come from a life of loyalty.
- Wheat fields in the foreground are ready for harvest, symbolizing the rewards of dedication and the separation of the faithful from the unfaithful.
The 25 Wyoming Goldback beautifully captures the essence of loyalty, faith, and devotion. Whether for collecting, investing, or voluntary transactions, this note offers a meaningful way to own physical gold in an innovative and artistic form.
