Memento Mori / Memento Vivere Reminder Brass Coin
Solid Brass Coin
There is a long history of Memento Mori reminders, including coins. We have added our own spin on the concept and included a new reverse side, “Memento Vivere” which translates to “remember that you have to live.” We believe there is a beautiful balance between accepting mortality and embracing life.
Memento mori (Latin: "Remember that you have to die.") is the medieval Latin Christian theory and practice of reflection on mortality. Especially as a means of considering the vanity of earthly life and the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.
Memento vivere (Latin: "Remember you have to live.") Know that your time is short in the grand scheme of things. So have fun while you are here.

No two are exactly the same! Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques.

Absolutely loved how the coin came out, and the personalized envelope with wax seal was super cool!! I used it for my Dungeons and Dragons campaign, and all of my friends were super impressed and loved it, as did I!
