50 - Fifty Goldbacks

Amor Patriae (Love of Country, Patriotism)

The Florida 50 Goldback presents the virtue “Amor Patriae” (Love of Country) through the depiction of a Women’s Airforce Service Pilot (WASP). The young pilot, flying a P-51 Mustang, embodies the patriotism and bravery of women who served in WWII. She soars over the historic Hendricks Army Airfield, a key site in advancing military aviation. This scene captures a powerful moment of dedication, honoring the contributions of women who courageously served to protect the nation.

Sunlight reflects off the plane’s canopy, highlighting the pilot’s steady grip on the controls and her precise skill in maneuvering this iconic aircraft. She is a testament to the enduring principle, "Be watchful, stand firm." Her uniform proudly bears insignias honoring her service, including the WWII WASP, the U.S. Army Corps, the Air Transport Command, and the American flag. These emblems commemorate the critical role of women who transported essential aircraft and supplies during the war.

Dedicated to the 1.5 million veterans in Florida and all who serve, this denomination pays tribute to those whose courage fortified the nation. In both war and peace, their contributions have secured a lasting legacy. May this piece stand as a lasting tribute to their sacrifices, inspiring gratitude and a commitment to honoring their legacy.
