Can I get gold dollars from the bank?

Excuse me, I was wondering if you could clarify something for me. In the paragraph I just read, it mentioned "gold dollars". Now, I'm a bit confused. Is it possible to actually acquire gold dollars from a bank today? I've heard of gold coins and gold bars, but gold dollars as a currency seems a bit unconventional. Could you please elaborate on whether or not this is a feasible option, and if so, what the process might entail? Thank you for your time and consideration.
