When a gift is given and received earnestly, it creates a bond between the giver and receiver. It infuses the item gifted with a more potent type of value.
The coin moves as a gift, weaving deeper connections and building abundance and synchronicity. A symbol of global, spiritual, natural and mystical unity, this coin is designed to be gifted ad infinitum to weave our collective web.
As a gift moves from person to person, it gains mythical powers… creating stories of delight and connection, and weaving a web that creates community.
Ancient civilization builders knew this. they placed the mythology of their tribes, religions, or nations into their coins. As the coins moved, they built the mythology and the connections that created some of the most powerful communities of history.
But in the past, these coins moved through trade and transactions - creating scarcity and competition.

About the Coin
The coin is imbued with symbols and mythology from several ancient civilizations in an attempt to represent the roots of all.
Circle Dot
One of humanities most ancient and universal symbols. It represents the Primordial Point, the first mark laid down by the Pen of the Divine, who wrote the universe into being. It is a signal of intent, an act of creation, the beginning and origin of everything
Hand of Mysteries
An alchemical symbol representing the potential for transformation and access to hidden knowledge, often associated with the idea of a human being reaching towards divine power or enlightenment; it is depicted as a hand with various symbolic elements like stars, skulls, keys, and fish, each signifying different aspects of this spiritual journey.
All Seeing Eye
Represents a higher power with the ability to see everything, symbolizing omniscience, divine providence, and watchful observation over humanity; it is often associated with the concept of a spirit who is aware of all actions and thoughts, depicted as an eye within a triangle with rays of light emanating.
Latin
Audita voce universali, iterum incipimus: e pluribus unum.
Hearing the call of the universal spirit, we begin again the original way: out of many, one.
An invocation from the universal spirit, not any one partiular god, is heard and we start our ways again, in the original way, as it should be, and we come together as one tribe made of many tribes and cultures. This is a play on the Great Seal of of the United States of America, who attempted to make a culture of all, but left out a meaningful amount of people, plants, animals and spirits.
