Say what you believe and act on it, where everyone can see. Bold is a decision, not a mood.

The crew test

Are you more captain or more pirate?

Five real situations. Pick your move. The coin says you need both.

Hold the helm

Keep the spirit of adventure.

There is something about an open horizon that wakes the imagination. Beyond what you know lie places, ideas and experiences waiting to be found. Sometimes the call to set out arrives long before you know the whole route.

The pirate on this coin stands for initiative, resourcefulness and the courage to explore. The captain is the other half: the judgment of someone who knows where the ship is going and who is on board.

Freedom gains substance when you know what you want to use it for.Think like a captain. Act like a pirate.

Choose a horizon. Set out. Leave room for discovery.

Think like a captain. A captain knows the destination, prepares the ship and cares for the crew. Looking far ahead goes together with paying attention to what is happening on deck. It means taking responsibility for the direction you choose, using your experience and knowing that your decisions reach others.

Act like a pirate. The spirit of adventure brings the courage to set things in motion: to start the project, propose the unexpected idea, look for a way where the familiar route ends. Resourcefulness shows up when you look at what you already have with fresh eyes and find solutions with the people beside you.

Stay the course and keep the flag. The wind changes, and sometimes you need to trim the sails. You can change your approach while keeping the reason you set out close at hand. The flag stands for the values and promises you carry. The helm is your part in the journey. The treasure is what you find along the way.

Choose a horizon that calls to you. Prepare to set out. Leave room for discovery.

A few answers.

What does “think like a captain, act like a pirate” mean?

Plan with responsibility, then act with boldness. A captain reads the weather, plots the route and cares for the crew. A pirate moves first and finds a way where the familiar route ends. The coin asks you to be both.

What does “stay the course and keep the flag” mean?

Once you choose your direction, do not drop it at the first storm. You can change your approach and trim the sails, while keeping the reason you set out and the values you carry.

What is on the front?

A pirate skull with an eyepatch and a tricorn hat marked with a skull and crossbones, over two crossed sabres inside a ring of rope, with Think like a captain and Act like a pirate around the rim.

What is on the back?

A ship's wheel wrapped in the tentacles of a kraken, a skull and crossbones at the hub, a compass, a spyglass, a treasure chest and a ship under full sail over an old sea chart, with Stay the course and Keep the flag.

Is the coin flat or domed?

Flat, with low and very detailed relief. It sits flat in the hand and in a pocket, and the fine detail stays crisp.

Is it a good gift for a boat owner or a founder?

Yes. Sailors love the wheel, compass and kraken, and founders and sales teams love the motto. Tick “This is a gift” to add a free printed note.

What are the finishes made of?

Antique Bronze and Antique Silver are brass alloy; the silver finish is not solid silver. Antique Copper is solid copper. For fine silver there is the Pirate Coin in 1 oz .999 silver.

Is there a matching key tag?

Yes. The Pirate Key Tag carries the same design. Bought together, every item is $5 less.

How does free US shipping work?

US shipping is free on orders of $49 or more. A single coin ships for $4.99. Add any second item, a coin of any design or an accessory, and every item is $5 less.

The full details
About this coin

Front: “Think like a captain · Act like a pirate”. Back: “Stay the course & keep the flag”.

On the front, a pirate skull with an eyepatch and a tricorn hat marked with a skull and crossbones, over two crossed sabres inside a ring of rope. The back is packed with detail: a ship's wheel wrapped in the tentacles of a kraken, a skull and crossbones at the hub, a compass, a spyglass, a treasure chest and a ship under full sail, all over an old sea chart.

The relief is low and crisp, not domed, so the coin sits flat in a pocket and the fine detail stays sharp.

How to use it

Keep it in your pocket on the days that need a decision. Front up: think like a captain, check the route and the crew. Flip it: act like a pirate and make the move. When the water gets rough, turn it to the back and hold the wheel.

The meaning

A captain thinks ahead, reads the weather and takes responsibility for the crew. A pirate breaks the rules that don't make sense and moves fast. The front of this coin asks you to be both: think carefully, then act boldly.

The back is the other half of the deal. Stay the course and keep the flag: once you choose your direction, don't drop it at the first storm.

The design

The front shows a pirate skull with an eyepatch and tricorn hat over crossed blades. The back is packed with detail: a ship's wheel wrapped in the tentacles of a kraken, a skull and crossbones at the hub, a compass, a treasure chest and a ship under sail.

On good days and hard days

  • On good days, it keeps your bold spirit alive and your plans one step ahead.
  • On hard days, when the water gets rough, it reminds you to think like a captain, act like a pirate, stay the course and keep the flag.

Carry it

It is a conversation starter. Customers tell us that everyone they show it to wants one; one ordered three more for relatives after they saw it.

Give it

It is a fun gift for a founder, a boat owner, a fishing buddy or a sales team. One customer called it a perfect client giveaway, because the motto says what a good business partner does. For a bigger occasion, there is a 1 oz .999 silver version.

Specs

  • Diameter: 1.54 in (39 mm), about the size of a silver dollar
  • Thickness: 2.7 mm
  • Weight: about 1 oz (28 g)
  • Material: brass alloy (Antique Silver, Antique Bronze) or solid copper (Antique Copper)
  • Made: die struck, minted in the USA
  • 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.
