1 Nevada GoldbackIMPORTANT:Images are stock images. We cannot sort through serial numbers to find a specific one, and we make no promises that an item is or is not an “alpha” edition unless that is specifically stated in the listing title. Please ask any questions before making a purchase. 1 Nevada GoldbackVirtue: Caritas (Charity)
Enduring Principle: “Charity Faileth Not.”
Caritas, the personification of Charity, makes her debut on Nevada’s 1 Goldback. The design draws inspiration from Mary in a painting at St. Augustine’s Catholic Church in Austin, Nevada—the oldest Catholic church building in the state—honoring Nevada’s deep-rooted spiritual and charitable traditions.
At Caritas’s feet bloom a Sierra Nevada Lily and a Mary Magdalene Rose, each placed in a vessel representing purity, grace, and devotion. Above, cherubs present crowns and burning hearts, signifying divine love and eternal compassion. In her hands, she holds a glowing candle, illuminating the scene as a symbol of hope, guidance, and selfless giving. Through the window behind her, Nevada’s sun rises over the mountains, a reminder of renewal and opportunity.
The architectural details—the window frame, candleholder, and columns—are inspired by St. Mary in the Mountains Catholic Church in Virginia City, a historic site of faith. Hidden symbols throughout the artwork include the word “Love”, a square and compass, a wagon wheel, and rosary beads, each reflecting the guidance, devotion, and journey of faith that Charity embodies.
Additional touches emphasize family and community: an ash tree representing marital bonds and a nod to Las Vegas as the “wedding capital of the world,” and a family of ring-necked pheasants, renowned for their nurturing behavior, illustrating charity as care for others and the enduring strength of communal ties.
