Some poker players count their winnings. Others count the years they have spent around the same table, trading stories, questioning each other’s bluffs and insisting that the next hand will be theirs. The Old Bastards’ Poker Club Coin captures that second kind of player perfectly.
With a sharply dressed skeleton, a royal flush and a generous helping of irreverent humour, this two-sided collectible celebrates the characters who make poker night worth turning up for. Its message is simple: you might be getting older, but you are not ready to fold.

A Coin with Poker-Table Personality
Poker is a game of cards, but a good poker night is also a gathering of personalities. There is the player who never believes anyone has a better hand. The one who tells the same story every week. And the quiet regular whose smallest smile makes everyone else nervous.
The Old Bastards’ Poker Club Coin belongs in that world. It is not a solemn tribute to the game or a promise of better luck. It is a tongue-in-cheek salute to experience, stubborn confidence and the pleasure of playing another round with familiar faces.
The “Lifetime Member” wording gives it the feel of an unofficial club badge. No application is required, just a sense of humour and enough years at the table to have earned a few stories.
The Front: “100% Too Old” and “All In Anyway”
The front face places a skeleton poker player at the centre of a richly coloured card-room scene. Dressed in a dark suit, bow tie and brimmed hat, he raises a glass while a cigar rests between his teeth. Behind him, warm lighting, wood-panelled walls and a deep red chair create the atmosphere of an old-fashioned private poker room.
On the table are playing cards and stacks of chips. Beside the skeleton sits a dog wearing sunglasses, adding another layer of mischief to a design that clearly refuses to take itself too seriously.
The surrounding inscriptions deliver the joke. “OLD BASTARDS’ POKER CLUB” runs around the top, while “LIFETIME MEMBER” anchors the bottom. On either side of the central figure, “100% TOO OLD” and “ALL IN ANYWAY” turn advancing age into a declaration of intent.
It is the visual equivalent of a player leaning back in their chair and saying, “I’ve been doing this longer than you have, and I’m still not folding.”
The Reverse: “Bluff, Drink & Deal Again”
The reverse brings the focus back to the familiar objects of poker night. A fan of spade cards shows a royal flush: ten, jack, queen, king and ace. In front sit stacks of red and dark poker chips alongside a tumbler filled with an amber drink and ice.
Decorative scrollwork frames the scene, with a large spade beneath the lower banner. The club name appears around the upper edge, keeping both faces connected through the same fictional poker-club identity.
The banner reads “BLUFF, DRINK & DEAL AGAIN”. It is a fitting punchline for a coin built around the ritual of another hand, another story and another evening at the table.
Together, the two faces balance character and symbolism. The front supplies the club’s most memorable member; the reverse supplies the cards, chips and motto.
A Funny Gift for a Seasoned Poker Player
The best humorous gifts feel personal. They recognise something about the recipient, whether that is a favourite hobby, a familiar catchphrase or an impressive refusal to act their age.
This coin suits a poker-loving dad, grandad, friend or regular card-night companion who enjoys a little affectionate teasing. It could mark a birthday, retirement or the occasion when someone in your group finally deserves honorary “Lifetime Member” status.
The wording is deliberately cheeky, so it is best chosen for someone who will enjoy the joke. For the right recipient, that is precisely its appeal: a small collectible that feels as though it was made for their seat at the table.

A Keepsake for the Collection or Card Room
Not every collectible needs to commemorate a historic event. Some are worth keeping because they capture a personality, a friendship or a ritual that matters.
The Old Bastards’ Poker Club Coin can serve as a reminder of regular games, longstanding friendships and evenings when the conversation was just as memorable as the cards. Display it alongside other themed coins, keep it near the card table or give it to the person who always organises the next game.
It is a novelty collectible rather than currency or proof of membership in an actual poker club. Its value as a keepsake lies in the design and the joke shared between the person giving it and the person receiving it.
