The coins

Every coin begins with a photograph of yours.

People, places, the dog, the old truck. If it matters to you and you have a picture of it, it can be a coin.

What it can say

A date, a name, a few words.

The front carries a short line around the edge or beneath the picture: a date, a place, something only your family says. The back has room for names and a line of your own.
