The Founding Suite
No. __Your numbered black metal Member card, and your name sworn onto the printed Charter of the First Tide — signed, sealed, unmistakably yours.
Use the email you gave at checkout and the password you created with your order. Signed in, you see your seat in plain words, your member number, your coins and exactly how The High Tide is bought.
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.

No. 001–015The first fifteen serials of every strike are held for members to pick — the elusive low numbers collectors chase hardest and hold longest.
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.
