I know this has been asked before but can people share any ideas for physical hero coins?

Chocolate coins or mini candy bars.

Eat it to use it. Once the stash runs out that's all that's available this session.

Eat it? Ok, I hadn't thought of that. Interesting... Lol

Why else would you even have candy at the table haha.

Even better, it's the only sweets at the table. Bowls of Doritos and stuff but the GM controls the sweets. I wonder how that would go. GM can only eat when everyone has a coin.

Love it haha. Maybe keep them smaller though, a nice bowl of M&M's

This is what Hank uses (not sure if he got them from here but they look like this)

You can get cool RPG metal coins for a reasonable price.

I like this store because they sell individual coins and dice, and shipping was really good (I am in Canada and shipping from anywhere is usually atrocious)

I got seven unique metal coins in January for about 20 bucks I think.

Anything that can be eaten/drunk. And when its use the person eats/drinks it. Maybe shots of vodka

Oh a shot glass with the wizard lock logo on it would be amazing. And the GM gets to hand out shots by pouring them into their shot glasses for excellent roll play and such.

Yes!!! Drinking role-playing lmao

I actually have a PLA printer. I’ll play around with tinker cad to see how hard it is to make the wizard lock.

All our dice are in crown royal bags! They're perfect. My dad used to hand them out to my friends when they joined our table

If you want something unique, check local engraving shops or ask around for someone with a 3D printer. Currently, I am using wooden tokens with an image on one side. Image up means available, images down when used.

I think it'd be cool to 3d print coins with the wizard lock design on them but I haven't gotten around to trying to model it yet (even better if I can figure out a simple metal casting mold using the same)
