Shire Post Mint The Kingkiller Chronicle | King Feyda Calanthis Breakable Vintish Penny

As King in life, Feyda is shown in chain mail flanked by soldiers below the sun. He holds a map and a downward pointing sword. As King in death, the barrow draug Wizard King Feyda holds an upward pointing sword and a branch of hemlock. Behind him are Greystones and a crescent moon. Feyda Calanthis was posthumously declared the first king of Tarvintas.

This coin was struck after Feyda died and is thinner than the coins struck when he was alive. The Penny is scored in such a way that it can be bent and broken in two - resulting in two Vintish Half Pennies. If you break this Penny to make change, it is only polite to offer the other party the choice of which half to keep.

Description via Shire Post Mint

Breaking your coin

Enjoyable and somewhat addictive, this coin can be broken by hand. Pressing the coin against the edge of something sturdy like a table and bend, then bend back and forth until it breaks. No tools are required though a good filing when finished will leave you with a smooth, beveled edge.

Minting process

Treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated, this process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science, coloring and patinas will vary. No two are exactly the same. 

Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. A colorful description is included with history and facts about the coin.
