Theodore Nichols is producing “thnickels,” thicker and heavier versions of U.S. nickels designed to feel substantial and command respect.
The project began after burglars stole a bag of regular nickels from Nichols, inspiring him to create more intimidating currency.
Pre-orders for the first batch of thnickels are open with limited slots, and Nichols has partnered with a site to manage orders.
The proposed coin design includes Nichols’s bust, inscriptions such as “In Mass We Trust,” “Respect Me,” “Nummos Crassiores Omnibus,” and “Hefty Coin Nation.”
Nichols has converted his garage into a mint facility and welcomes positive feedback, flyer distribution, and community support.
Contact details for ordering and inquiries are provided by email and phone.
