The Fugio Cent (also called the Franklin cent) was the first official circulation coin of the United States. First minted in 1787, the design is similar to Franklin's 1776 Continental Currency dollar coin that never made it to circulation. The coin featured an image of the Sun shining down on a sundial meant to indicate the passing of time, the phrase "We Are One" surrounded by thirteen chain links to represent the original thirteen colonial states, and the message "Mind Your Business," a reference to both focusing on your own affairs and a subtle warning against unwanted government interference.

To honor America's 250th anniversary, we are proud to release the Fugio Bolt Action Pen and the Constitution Bolt Action Pen in quantities of 125 each and priced at $177.60. Available while supplies last.
