A Florida story, with a number of its own. Every Florida Man Mint coin pairs original artwork in silver with a numbered certificate and a record in our Official Registry.
01
Individually numbered certificate — your First Tide Release number, 001–150, hand-signed by Florida Man.
02
Entered in the Official Registry — compare the number on your coin's edge with its certificate and Registry record. Your Authentication ID opens the record for that coin.
03
Treasure-cased 1 oz .999 fine silver — assayed and verified, Treasure-cased behind a struck Rare Metal label (never paper) before it ever sees a box.
04
A Florida story to keep — original artwork, silver you can hold, and a place in the numbered edition. A 4x6 numbered certificate, story postcard, velvet pouch and the Florida Man Mint box complete the presentation.
Laser-engraved into the edge — every coin's number is cut into the silver itself. Shown: the Founder's Coin, No. 000.
Each standard Florida Man Mint™ release begins with a strictly numbered First Tide Release of 150 coins. If collector demand is strong, Florida Man Mint™ may authorize additional standard-release coins, but the total mintage for each design will never rise past its High-Water Mark of 500 pieces. Only coins numbered 001–150 qualify as the official First Tide Release.
The certificate swears to the coin. The coin backs it in silver.
The Gulf keeps secrets — your certificate does not. Every legend of the Sea is numbered and entered in Florida Man Mint's Official Registry. Its number ties the story in silver to a record you can check.
01
First Tide Release · numbered 001–150 — each certificate signed and matched to its coin.

03
Treasure-cased 1 oz .999 fine silver — struck Rare Metal label, assayed at the mint. No legend ships unverified.
04
A legend with its own record — a place in the numbered edition, a story in silver, and the details to pass along with it: a 4x6 numbered certificate, story postcard, velvet pouch and the Florida Man Mint box.
Laser-engraved into the edge — every coin's number is cut into the silver itself. Shown: the Founder's Coin, No. 000.
Each standard Florida Man Mint™ release begins with a strictly numbered First Tide Release of 150 coins.

The certificate swears to the coin. The coin backs it in silver.
Every Florida legend starts with something real: one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, original artwork, and our Tideglass Finish™. Turn it in the light. Follow the relief. Feel the weight of the story in your hand.
Fine Silver.999Minimum Fineness · Every Strike
i..999 Fine Silver
The Standard of Real Treasure
999 parts pure silver per 1,000 — the fineness marked on your coin and its certificate. Bright silver, sculpted detail, and a Florida story you can turn over in your hand.
ii.One Troy Ounce
The Weight of History
One full troy ounce — 31.1035 grams — gives each coin its weight in the hand. It is the same measure shown on your certificate, bringing a precise physical detail to the legend.
iii.Struck for the Story
From Art to Silver
Original Florida artwork meets .999 fine silver, Tideglass Finish™ and relief shaped to catch the light. Explore both sides, from the first glimpse to the small details that reward a closer look.
iv.More Than the Metal
Silver and Story
Each release pairs one ounce of .999 fine silver with original Florida folklore, a Tideglass finish, a numbered Certificate of Authenticity, and a strictly numbered First Tide Release. The artwork, the number and the story make it a Florida Man Mint collectible.
We will never strike Florida legends in base metal. Because treasure should be real — and legends deserve silver. Forged in Sunshine · Struck for Legend
The High Tide Society
Est. 2026 · The Inner Tide
Members Only · The Inner Tide
The Gulf pays its members first.
Most of what we strike reaches the shelf. The best of it never does. The High Tide Society is the inner circle of Florida Man Mint — the collectors the tide finds first, four to six times a year, every year.
Here is how it works on our side of the water. Four to six times a year the Mint strikes a coin that will never be sold to the public. Not late, not re-released, not “back by popular demand.” Four hundred and fifty pieces, struck once, offered only to members, and then the die retires to the bottom of a very deep drawer. Miss a tide and that legend belongs to somebody else forever.
Membership is one seat, one price, no fine print with teeth. You get first claim on every member strike, the lowest numbers we mint, and a letter we actually enjoy writing. It is a privilege sworn under the lantern — and the Founding roll is open.
Plainly, so nobody is surprised: the seat does not include a coin. Every member-only strike, The High Tide included, is bought separately at its own price, in a window only members can enter. The seat is the key; the coins are the treasure behind the door.
What the tide carries in

ii.
The First Fifteen

iii.
Member-Only Coins
4–6 / yearFour to six coins a year minted exclusively for High Tide members, each bought separately at its own price. Never on the public shelf — when the tide goes out, they’re gone.
iv.
The High Tide Letter

vii.
Merchandise & Member Incentives
In the worksMember-only merchandise from the Mint and a growing set of personal incentives for the roll — first looks, early words, the odd surprise in the box. Members hear about each one first.
