The gold certificate was a form of paper currency issued by the United States government from 1863 - 1933 and was redeemable for physical gold coinage. Each note gave the holder title to its corresponding amount of gold. However, during the gold recall of 1933 it became illegal to own a gold certificate and would remain so until 1964 when the government lifted the ban to allow collectors own examples for their intrinsic value.
