These are a collaboration between my dad and I...but he never knew about it.
Generally, when my dad or grandfather would make a batch of parts, they'd make extra or have some that didn't meet specs. These parts would go in a bag with the specs for the part and put away in a cabinet. After my dad died, I didn't have the heart to just get rid of these parts and figured that someday I'd make something with them. He had no idea what these parts were for but now they are serving as a base for these limited edition incense holders.

Go down the rabbit hole with this one.
You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.
Manually machined and laser engraved in California.
Red pill is stained by hand but please note that it will likely wear off in time. I'm putting an oil coat and a wax coat to protect it so it should last a bit.

If you don't make a choice, life will do it for you.
Decision Makers are fun and I'll keep making them but the reality is you already know what choice you want to make but you're likely paralyzed by the fear of making the wrong decision. This little "worry" coin will remind you to go with your gut and move forward with confidence. Make the decision and do what needs to be done to make it the right one. If it turns out to be a "mistake", learn from it and shift gears.

The second homage to one of my favorite novels, 1984.
Are you a Thought criminal?
UNTHINK UNGOOD THOUGHTCRIMES
Updated version!

Thoughtcrime is a word coined by George Orwell in his 1949 dystopian novel 1984. It describes a person's politically unorthodox thoughts, such as unspoken beliefs and doubts that contradict the tenets of Ingsoc (English Socialism), the dominant ideology of Oceania. In the official language of Newspeak, the word crimethink describes the intellectual actions of a person who entertains and holds politically unacceptable thoughts; thus the government of the Party controls the speech, the actions and the thoughts of the citizens of Oceania. In contemporary English usage, the word thoughtcrime describes beliefs that are contrary to accepted norms of society, and is used to describe theological concepts, such as disbelief and idolatry, and the rejection of an ideology.
"Worrying is like paying a debt you don't owe"
Our Worry Coin is minted from solid metal in the U. S.
Available in Bronze, Copper, blackened Iron & .999 Silver.
Mokume version is limited and will vary in patter from coin to coin.
Blackened Iron version does not have reeding (little lines) on the edge. Iron is too hard to make this happen but we think it works without in this case.
Approximately 1.25" diameter
Solid Silver option is 1Â troy ounce.
The most remarkable thing about this favorite quote of mine is the simplicity and truth behind it. We worry almost constantly and there's nothing in this world saying that we have to. It doesn't change anything or fix the problem, but we do it anyway. We constantly pull from our bank of emotions and hormones to pay for this debt that doesn't exist.
A few years ago, I started manually machining various types of Worry Coins. They vary in metals, woods and sizes. Last year I had the idea that I'd laser engrave this quote into a coin but it was missing something and made these hand made coins even more expensive. I really wanted to be able to offer a more affordable version of a Worry Coin with this quote but, at the time, was not aware of Shire Post Mint's ability to create a concave surface on one side, so I shelved the project. A few months later, I saw what they could do with a coin so reached out to my favorite designer, Mike Major, and got to work. I couldn't be happier with the result. The size, weight, design and cost are the perfect balance and I'm sure you will enjoy.
NEW AND IMPROVED!
Bronze and .999 Silver are now the new thickness. Copper is coming once we clear out old inventory.
The big change is the thickness. The original is around .090" thick and the new is around .125" thick. Doesn't seem like much but you can see and feel the difference. I've been wanting to make this change for years but had to get through a ton of inventory!
Tired of those tough decisions? Why not leave some up to fate?!
Our Decision Maker coin is minted from solid metal in the U. S.
Approximately 1.25" diameter
Solid .999 Fine Silver option is 26 grams or app. .85 troy ounce.
