Carpe Noctem Coin

Carpe Diem EDC - Carpe Noctem Coin

Given the overwhelming success of the Carpe Diem (Seize the Day!) coins, a companion coin that follows the same theme for the night cannot be missing.
Carpe Diem means: make the most of today, because time is fleeting and tomorrow is uncertain.
The Carpe Noctem (Make the most of the night!) coin has a slightly "darker" and more macabre design, reminding the owner of the following:

  • Time destroys all things ~ Tempus Edax Rerum
  • Death conquers all ~ Mors Vincit Omnia
  • It's how well you live that matters, not how long ~ Quam Bene Vivas Refert Non Quam Diu
  • With the instruction: Go and seize the night! ~ Carpe Noctem

Top Coin

Die Münze ist genau so wie ich erwartet hatte und da ich die "Carpe-Diem-Version" schon hatte auch ein Kaufgrund.^^

Tolle Münze

Die Münze kommt gross und wuchtig und schwer daher..... Genauso wie ich mir das vorgestellt habe. Auch die Patina ist schön, obgleich ich beim nächsten mal lieber eine blanke Kupfer Münze nehmen würde um die selbst altern zu lassen. Dämlich, absolute Kaufempfehlung, schön finde ich auch das der Münze Erklärungen zu den aufgebrachten lateinischen Prägungen beiliegen.

Sehr schöne und wertige Münze!

Nach dem ich von der Carpe Diem Münze schon sehr angetan war, mußte auch die Carpe Noctem noch an den Start. Sehr schöne, wertige Münze und genau wie die erste was besonderes. Dazu noch eine genau passende Lederhülle, damit das Teil lange seinen Charme behält. PERFEKT Danke euch!

Coin Slip
Coin Slip fits all coins from Carpe Diem EDC and the GiantMouse SSU Coin (diameter 39 mm) Black leather = Buttero Nero Brown leather = Pull Up Coins are undoubtedly becoming more and more popular in the EDC scene. But maybe you've also wondered how to transport your talisman without scratching the coin in your pocket. Especially for coins with a nice, detailed surface, that's a shame. Daniel from dp_steelandleather has come up with something again and developed a CoinSlip. So you have a small pouch in which you can carry your favorite coin without scratching it. Especially the brown pullup harness leather benefits immensely from being carried in your pocket. Thanks to the heavily greased surface, it accepts scratches and creases, giving it a wonderfully individual patina. As with all dp_steelandleather products, the CoinSlip is also handmade by Daniel in his small manufactory workshop. Please note that the tannic acid of the leather can accelerate the "aging" of your coin. Especially silver coins tarnish quickly.

Carpe Diem Coin
Carpe Diem EDC "Carpe Diem" Coin  "When I designed my Original Carpe Diem Coin, I wanted a challenge coin that could be carried and given away to friends and family, that would remind the holder that time is fleeting, that death waits at the end for all of us, and that it is important to make the most of every day."   Jim Wirth, founder of Carpe Diem EDC The skull on the face of the coin symobolizes death.The gear wheel on the stin of the skull is found in all mechanical watches and is a symbol of the passing of time. "Time passes" or "time flies" became more of a reality each day as Jim himself approached the age of 50."Death Waits" was his very real, if somber, reminder that at the end of all our days of life, there is only the certainty of death. On the back side of his original Carpe Diem coin was a simple message, "Carpe Diem," meaning "Seize the day" and "Make your life extraordinary." Make the most of every day you have! Work hard but also celebrate well. Do good for others who are not as fortunate as you. Be present in the lives of friends and family. For the text on the coins, Jim chose Latin: "TEMPUS FUGIT" for "Time Passes" and "MEMENTO MORI" for "Remember Death." The reverse shows a "Tree of Life" with the words "CARPE DIEM" for "Seize the Day." Surrounding the tree of life are the words "FAC VITAM INCREDIBILEM" for "Make an incredible life for yourself" and "MEMENTO VIVERE" for "Remember to live". These two sayings are separated by roses, a subtle suggestion to take time, pause and smell the roses   Technical Specifications: Diameter:  39 mm Thickness:  2,7 mm Material Antique bronze finish (brass alloy - chemically aged).Antique silver (German silver - chemically aged)Solid copper with antique finishCopper ( raw and shiny) Brass (shiny).999 Silver (approx. 1 ounce) Made in USA:   Made in America's oldest mint (founded in 1835)
