About this edition
This coin comes from the very first run of our Warrior design. Our current version of the design is the Warrior Mindset Coin. The First Strike Edition will not be struck again; when these are sold, there will be no more.
The meaning
Worrying and fighting use the same energy. The worrier spends it on what might go wrong; the warrior spends it on what to do next. The front asks you to switch sides: be a warrior, not a worrier, and dare to be more.
The back flips a familiar phrase: don't limit your challenges, challenge your limits. The hard thing in front of you is how you find out what you can do.
The design
The front shows a crested Spartan helmet over two crossed swords inside a round shield, with be a warrior not a worrier above and dare to be more below. The back sets the quote inside a Greek key border.
On good days and hard days
-
On good days, it pushes you to challenge your limits instead of settling for what feels comfortable.
-
On hard days, when worry takes over, it reminds you to switch sides: be a warrior, not a worrier, and dare to be more.
Carry it
Keep it for the moment before the start line, the exam room or the hard conversation, when worry is louder than the plan. One customer simply called it a very cool, well crafted coin.
Give it
It is a good gift for a son or daughter who worries too much, an athlete before a big race or a student before exams. For someone who likes owning the first version of something, the First Strike Edition is a fitting choice.

- Thickness: 2.7 mm
- Weight: about 1 oz (28 g)

- Each coin is antiqued with a special patina so it looks like it has already been in circulation. The patina never settles the same way twice, so no two coins look exactly alike. Small variations in color and shading are normal, and they are what make your coin one of a kind.
