My dad passed away from multiple cancers in 2018. In early 2018, I machined a "worry coin" for him and stamped Fuck cancer on it. He'd carry it with him during his chemo. You may or may not have seen the free version that we make available on occasion. I've never intended on making a paid version but, after many requests, I'm finally giving in. This will also allow us to bring in more of the free versions for folks that don't have the funds for this one. 

These are CNC machined and then laser engraved but I'm keeping them as affordable as possible. You may notice that I reversed the text on the Camus side from the original. This cut the laser time way down which allowed me to lower the price quite a bit.

1.25" diameter solid Brass

I love this quote from Albert Camus. It truly speaks to the human condition...in my humble opinion.

I believe in making my own luck...but doesn't hurt to have a little superstition in the pocket for back up. Makes a great ball marker as well.

I've had many requests for a sobriety coin I felt like there were many options out there and I don't like the idea of profiting from addiction. Recently I had a new friend share some personal challenges so I was inspired to design one for her son.

HOW THIS WORKS:
This coin is now holding you accountable. When you hit the next year milestone, contact us and we will replace it for free. My hope is that over the years we are losing money on these.

If you're beyond the three year mark, choose "more than 3" and write the year in notes at checkout.

STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY?
If you're struggling with finances and you think this coin will benefit you with your struggles with addiction, please contact us and we will work something out.

Lisa's story is longer and better so click here for the full read.

Anthony's story
I'm not a stranger to the addicting quality of drugs and alcohol. "Runs in the family" but I'd argue it runs in the species. Existing is a daily struggle and it's easy to look for a quick solution to numb that struggle. For most of us, it starts innocently enough with our peer group but evolves into a way to relax or a reward at the end of a hard day to a way to cope with daily struggles. The story may not be the same for everyone but it ends up being the same for everyone. To be clear, I'm not for banning anything but I do believe that drugs and alcohol are poison to the mind and body...but so is sugar and fast food. If you're the type that can have an occasional drink and have it not impact you or your loved ones negatively, go for it. I happen to be this type of person but it's a slippery slope. One drink a night for a few nights in a row and the struggle ensues so I cut myself off for weeks, if not months. I finished that sentence and walked away for a moment because I had to ask myself a question...if having a few drinks causes a problem of wanting it daily, what am I doing drinking at all? Some self reflection is in order.

Breathing is important. Probably the most important thing you do every day...but most of us don't give it a second thought. This is to remind you to breathe and, when feeling overwhelmed and anxious, a quick guide to box breathing.

Don't forget to breathe.

Watch the video for a tutorial on Box Breathing...pretty simple.

Inhale for 4-6 seconds, hold for 4-6 seconds, exhale for 4-6 seconds and hold for 4-6 seconds. I recommend starting with 4 second intervals.

Here's a great article on the subject...CLICK

Shark teeth are around 54 million years old and will vary greatly in color and dimension.

Your excuse to get it done when you get a Round Tuit is no longer valid.

The labyrinth can be seen as an archetypal symbol of the psyche and of what C. G. Jung called the individuation process: that twisty, unpredictable, tortuous, serpentine path toward wholeness and authenticity. The goal is to reach the center, the Self, the core of our being.

The Labyrinth Stone is a worry stone with an added bonus. Trace your way to relaxation...oooooo

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.

"Imperfect" Event Horizons didn't make the cut but still look good and spin fairly well. Didn't want them to go to waste.

A pocket sized black hole that can be carried with you. This is an actual black hole (it's not) that you can carry with you. If you're not aware, black holes are dangerous so please be careful near the event horizon because nothing can escape the gravitational pull of a black hole. The escape velocity of a black hole is faster than the speed of light which basically means that nothing can get away.

• 99.9% pure blackened Iron or Fine Silver (app .85 Troy Ounce)
• 1.25" diameter
• Approximate .25" height (varies)
• .125" ceramic ball contact point (singularity)
• Pocketable
• Tactile and soothing (sort of a worry coin in that sense)
• Minted in the U. S. of A.
• Spin times vary from 5-15 minutes (too many variables to be specific)

In January of 2018, my dad was diagnosed with bladder cancer so I was inspired to make him something that he could carry with him during treatment. He passed in October of 2018 and I was going to pull this piece from the site but decided to leave it. I hope it can provide a bit of comfort to anyone in need.
