Front: "Carpe Diem (seize the day), Memento Vivere (remember to live), Memento Mori (remember you must die), and Tempus Fugit (time flies) "
Back: "Enjoy life today because yesterday is gone and tomorrow is never promised."
The Carpe Diem Coin is a call to presence - a bold reminder that life doesn’t wait. Each element engraved into its surface carries a timeless message: that time flies, life is fragile, and our only true possession is the moment we are living now. Framed by symbols of day and night, life and death, and the relentless flow of the hourglass, this coin challenges us to stop sleepwalking through our days or deferring what truly matters.
To live fully means to embrace the present with clarity and courage to love, to act, to enjoy, to create - not someday, but today. It’s a reflection of ancient wisdom and modern urgency, designed for those who seek to live deliberately, not by default.
From a Stoic point of view, this isn’t about chasing pleasure or avoiding discomfort, it’s about owning your time and directing your energy toward what truly lies within your control. Marcus Aurelius taught that we are dying daily, and that the only moment that truly belongs to us is this one. The Carpe Diem Coin serves as a steady companion in that truth: reminding us that each day is both a gift and a responsibility, and that how we spend it defines who we become.
