Coin Details

Obverse: Features a detailed sundial, the word “Fugio” (Latin for “I fly”), and the phrase “Mind Your Business.” Often attributed to Benjamin Franklin, the motto reflects the idea that time flies—so be industrious—and is sometimes read as a call for limited government reminiscent of the era’s “Don’t Tread on Me” sentiment.

Reverse: Displays “We Are One” encircled by a chain of 13 links, symbolizing unity among the original states in the new republic.

Size & Finish: Resized to the dimensions of a standard U.S. nickel for modern wearability and elegantly finished in 18KT gold.
