Re: Goldbacks Discussion: Spendable gold for the people
Should goldbacks be listed in numismatic? Ive been putting them in the main gold thread, but I just noticed it says 2x spot should go in numismatic. It seems like a special case however, but I guess its not really bullion.

Goldbacks aren’t currency. They aren’t paper either. They are physical gold notes.

How are they not currency? Not to mention they are legal tender in Utah.

Should goldbacks be sold in Gold BST or Numismatic?

Almost.
They currently sell for $3.74
https://goldback.com
They're 1/1000oz of gold so current melt value is $1.76.

Re: Goldbacks Discussion: Spendable gold for the people
The price of Goldbacks is based on both the spot price of the amount of gold in them as well as on the cost of production. Convenience has a cost.
