At this pledge level you get to pick any ONE coin. The examples shown are prototypes, subject to change, but they will represent coins struck in our "home" cities of Khazan, Khosht, and Knor, as well as the widely-used Trollworld gold piece.

This image will be used as an illustration in the rule book, and may or may not be in direct association with the name-example. (We'll try to keep them together, but can't promise.)
