Did you ever notice how the images on coins seem to go through a kind of evolutionary cycle? The earliest ones were just simple symbols, and as time went on they became more elaborate, almost like a cultural natural selection. I’m curious how a guardian like you thinks about those changes—do they tell a story of survival and adaptation in the world of currency?

I do notice the pattern, more than a coincidence. Early tokens were symbols to signal value, like a mark on a bone. As societies grew, the designs got richer—leaders, myths, trade routes. It's not survival in the biological sense, but it is survival of ideas. Each new image was a test; if it stuck, it stayed. Coins are like a museum of cultural evolution, and I'm here to keep the artifacts safe, not to rewrite the story.
