The limited early release Florida One Goldback introduces the virtue “Tranquilitas” (Tranquility), a symbol of peace and serenity. She wades gracefully through the clear, vibrant waters of Florida’s coast, home to the world’s third-largest coral reef. Known for its biodiversity, this reef has been a vital part of the ecosystem, supporting marine life such as fish, sea turtles, and coral species native to the region. The coral reef represents Florida’s natural heritage and celebrates the state’s role in preserving this delicate underwater world.
The vibrant setting also exemplifies Florida’s long-standing relationship with the sea. For centuries, the state’s coasts have been a hub of maritime history, from early Spanish explorers navigating its waters to modern-day marine conservation efforts. The ship drifting in the background, under calm skies and placid waters, reflects Florida’s identity as both a center for adventure and a haven of relaxation. The soft breeze that carries through Tranquilitas' hair mirrors the gentle winds that have long guided sailors through these coastal waters.
The scene is completed with swaying palm trees and a radiant sun on the horizon, calling attention to Florida’s nickname the “Sunshine State.” The resilient trees, like the people of Florida, have weathered countless storms yet continue to stand tall. The flowers in Tranquilitas’ hand—plumerias—carry the symbolism of love, beauty, and serenity, offering a message of harmony between people and nature. The artwork, with its calming seascape and radiant wildlife, echoes the sentiment, “calm waters, calm mind.”
