Fungible Token Decision Maker Coin in Mokume-gane
Grow More Certain.
Spawned to restore order and balance in a time when non fungible tokens are in excess, this Metal Fungible Token (MFT) decision maker is teeming with fungi of all shapes and sizes. Wormy underlords dictate the answers you seek, burrowing amongst the vast mycelium network in the cool dirt below. On the side of this token with Worms of Approval, a cornucopia of edible fungi bursts outwards for the keen mycologists among you to identify and harvest. On the reverse, Worms of Foreboding gather in their tunnels and warn of a most unpleasant potluck of poison.

Mokume-gane is a Japanese metalworking procedure which produces a mixed-metal laminate with distinctive layered patterns, as well as that laminate itself. Mokume-gane translates closely to "wood grain metal" or "wood eye metal" and describes the way metal takes on the appearance of natural wood grain. Our stock is a layered metal of copper, brass, and nickel - each coin has a unique pattern due to the folding techniques used.

Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.
We collaborate with many artists to create our coins. Learn more about our artists.
