Cthulhu Coin #4 – The Sigil of Great Old One impressed upon 1 ozt (one troy ounce) of 999 pure silver bullion.
Own the embodiment of 2 designs smashed into hot metal by the inescapable force of The Void. Obverse is our trademark Cthulhu Sigil and on the reverse will be your selection of any of the following:
The a second Cthulhu, the yellow sign, the sigil of the gateway, the elder mandala, the clipped point pentacle, or a captive-star-in-pentagon design. No choice = our choice!
This corrupted coin is formed by using an issuer-certified 999 pure, one-troy-ounce (1 ozt) silver [Ag] host token or bullion piece of our choosing. It will then be formed to our design with the crushing force of our accursed coin press. Please note all copies are made with the 1-once coins and blanks we have on hand, and relative size of the coin and placement of designs will vary based on the blank itself. All these coins, however, are one troy ounce 999 silver. None are perfect and will show signs of being hand made; we try to make them all unique!
If you are a true believer, you know one of these hand-pressed, painstakingly-crafted coins will buy you safe passage to R'lyeh. Each is different, as they are crafted one by one. There are but a few still known to exist among the collections of the most dedicated collectors of Mythos objects (those who've remain sane, that is). Make yourself one of that assemblage of curiosity seekers and explorers with such a coin.
Made from 99.9% pure silver, corrupted by the sigils of the Great Lord Cthulhu and the Old Ones, legend has it that such a coin will warm to the touch as one approaches the ancient lost city of R'lyeh... or when The Great Old One, the walking horror, Cthulhu, is near. These coins will also allow the bearer to command Deep Ones and temporarily restrain them from their natural instinct to feast on mammalian flesh – at least that of the holder of the coin.
Legend also promises that possession of this coin spares the holder from the arcane and mind bending influences of the Creeping Chaos, so that they may maintain their sanity long enough to serve their master in his quest for cosmic re-awakening. That said, the owner must be careful. The subsonic vocalizations of the Eldritch Gods, which effect our spatial plane when the Old Ones are about to be unleashed from their infra-dimensional realms, will vibrate and warm these rare metals until they eventually liquify. This happens at a surprisingly low temperature and without much warning, rendering the holder powerless against the ravaging forces of the mighty god-beast, Cthulhu, and his kin - the deep ones, the kraken, the giant vampire squid, the beastly octopus, and the like.
Each coin is made individually by the artist. These are real metal coins, pure silver bullion, coin-pressed or hammer-struck by hand. No resins, glues, or clays are used. When the dies break, no further copies will be made. This design is copyrighted by the artist and is a trademark of Mythos Mint, that's us - and we are the only vetted sellers of this design. Accept no imitations or imposters. Cthulhu would not have it, nor should you.
