She is depicted at the mouth of a mine, with a piece of silver ore hovering above her outstretched hand. The artwork pays tribute to the discovery of the Comstock Lode in 1859, an enormous deposit of gold and silver that transformed Nevada almost overnight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThat pivotal discovery sparked booming mining towns, drawing miners, merchants, families, and investments to the rugged Nevada territory. Nevada’s mineral wealth became vital to the nation, with Comstock silver and gold helping strengthen the Union-era economy during the Civil War. Mining fueled Nevada’s rapid rise to statehood, forever linking the Silver State’s identity to the riches beneath its mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOn October 31, 1864, Nevada was admitted to the Union as the 36th state. Because statehood came during the Civil War, Nevada earned the nickname “Battle Born.” The artwork is filled with state symbolism, including a desert bighorn sheep in the background and the number “36” and “Battle Born” engraved on the mine cart in the foreground. Many of these details are illuminated under UV light. The state’s informal nickname also serves as the denomination’s enduring principle, written along the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpine Gold Exchange","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68002477277460,"sku":"GBNV50-2026ALPHA","price":388.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/9713\/6660\/files\/Nevada502026_Front.png?v=1794253306","url":"https:\/\/alpinegold.com\/products\/50-nevada-goldback-alpha-2026-pre-order","provider":"Alpine Gold Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
