A commemorative coin with a bun on one side and a fishbone on the other.
It could be a 50 cent coin but I think a 50 pence would be better as it is pleasingly 7-sided. It should however be refered to as a half-pound. The US version could have the nicer name of a half-buck.
Aletnatively if we wanted
it to be a uniquely useful coin it could be worth 99 cents/pence
The perimeter could have either a latin phrase or something like the English pound coin "standing on the shoulders of pedants"

"carpe demi" is nearly a Latin phrase. |

'aletnatively,' we could make two hundred slugs with a small emblem stamped on them and try to pass them out only to have them sit and gather dust under our beds. |

There are different types of "tokens" (about the size of
a US quarter-dollar) used by arcade machines. It is a
way that operators are encouraging people to spend
more money on the machines; they have token-
dispensers that only accept $1 and $5 bills, and give you
4 tokens for the dollar, and ONLY tokens for your dollar,
so you sort-of have to spend them all on the arcade
machines. |

Anyway, there are lots of token-designs out there.
Somebody makes them. It ought to be possible to find
that out, and commission a run of HB tokens/coins. |

You could get it 3D printed. I've been designing coins with things on already. The down-side is that they're of the order of $20, if you want them in metal.
I might make one. |

[Loris], consider 3-printing the stamping die for the tokens. |

I cut a circle of cardboard out of a breakfast cereal box. A bit of magic marker. And Viola... I got me a half baked vote determiner. |

I could get them cast for about a fiver each? |
