Dubai, the City of Gold, lives up to its name once again with the return of a truly unique souvenir: the 24-karat gold note. This isn’t just any piece of paper currency; it’s a luxurious memento celebrating Dubai’s rich heritage and iconic skyline.
Originally launched as a pioneering concept, the 24-karat gold note is back for a limited time, this time adorned with a special Eid Al Adha cover. This collaborative effort by Dian Jewellery, Finmet DMCC, and Valaurum pays homage to Dubai’s historic position as a global center for gold trade.
24-Karat Gold Note: A Souvenir Fit for the City of Gold
While the 24-karat gold note can’t be used for shopping sprees in Dubai’s bustling Gold Souk, it serves as a precious keepsake for residents and visitors alike. Each note boasts 0.1 grams of genuine 24-karat gold embedded within it, offering a touch of opulence that reflects Dubai’s glamorous reputation.
The design of the gold note isn’t just about the gold itself. It features a stunning illustration of the Dubai skyline, showcasing the city’s most recognizable landmarks. Every 24-karat gold note is unique, distinguished by its very own serial number, adding to its collectable value.
More Than Just Gold Plating: A Technological Innovation
The 24-karat gold note goes beyond the realm of mere souvenirs. This innovative creation utilizes a patented process that allows for the inclusion of real 24-karat gold within a flexible note. Unlike gold-plated items, where a thin layer of gold might eventually fade, the gold in this 24-karat gold note is designed to last.
Rahul Sagar, the founder of Dian Jewellery, sheds light on the unique technology behind the 24-karat gold note: “The key aspect that makes this so special is that we can incorporate real 24-karat gold into a flexible note through this patented process. What’s truly remarkable is that the gold can even be retrieved.”
Sagar goes on to explain the technical details: “With a professional fire assay, you can actually recover the 0.1 grams of 24-karat gold from the note. This is a stark contrast to gold-plated items or notes that are dipped in solutions containing minimal amounts of gold. That gold simply fades away and cannot be recovered, even through melting.”
