Memento mori is a Latin phrase meaning 'remember you must die'.

It is important to remember that life is precious and should be lived to the fullest. We should cherish the time we have with our loved ones and make sure to take care of our bodies and minds. When we are reminded of our mortality, it can be a motivator for us to live our best life.

Remembering our mortality is important for a number of reasons. First, it reminds us that our time on earth is limited and that we need to make the most of it. Second, it can help us to put our problems into perspective and to focus on what’s truly important in life. Third, it can motivate us to live a healthier lifestyle and to take care of our bodies. Fourth, it can inspire us to be more compassionate and to make a difference in the world.

When we remember that we’re going to die one day, it can help us to appreciate life more. We often take our time on earth for granted and assume that we have all the time in the world. But, when we stop and think about our mortality, it can remind us of how precious life is and how we need to make the most of it. It’s only by facing our own mortality that we can truly appreciate the gift of life.

Remember that death is there. So live life to the fullest, be humble, and be virtuous, every day, as it may be your last.

Our coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques.

The coins were chemically aged so the patina looks great right out of the package and will look even better with more wear from handling and daily carry. The coin is treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated. Coloring and patinas may slightly vary. There are no identical coins!

These coins are unique and are akin to a traditional military challenge coin.
