Coin #18 — Gold, Betrayal, and the Legacy of Carthage

Every empire falls. Some burn. Others bleed. But their gold remains.

The PirateCash NFT quest continues, and with it comes the release of the 18th coin — a key piece of the great treasure hunt, and a symbol of a deeper mythology woven into fire, ambition, and betrayal. As always, each coin is more than art. It’s a word. And each word brings you closer to the final secret.

This time, Coin #18 tells a story not of conquest, but of the ashes that follow it — and the blade that makes it possible.


🔥 Gold of Wrath: Ashes of Carthage

“Carthage has fallen, but its curse lives on.”

Forged in the fire of ambition and the smoke of a ruined city, this side of the coin channels the rage of an empire reduced to ash. Carthage stood proud once — a rival to Rome, a symbol of power. But fire has no memory of greatness. It only feeds.

This is a coin born not from glory, but from what comes after — hunger, legacy, the unquenchable thirst for gold. Because empires may vanish, but greed survives.

🗡 Blade of Triumph: The Betrayer’s Mark

“Empires celebrate their triumphs — but fall to betrayal.”

The other side of the coin reveals the cold logic of power. A dagger. Lightning. Silence. This is not the story of the conqueror, but of the one who struck from within. Not every throne is taken in battle — some are won in shadow.

Here, the blade is more than steel. It’s fate. It’s the decision to act. To seize. Because power is rarely given — it is taken.
