A limited edition

Own a legacy, make an impact

A challenge coin struck by Pewee Valley Lodge No. 829 — crafted to honor tradition, and to fund work that matters in this town.

Every coin goes directly to the lodge's charitable work: the scholarships, the school supplies, and the quiet relief we don't announce. Owning one preserves a piece of local history and pays for the next good thing we do.

A coin with purpose

A legacy you carry forward

More than a collectible. A symbol of unity, tradition, and the work this lodge does in Oldham County.

Pewee Valley Lodge No. 829 has stood in this community since 1910. The coin was struck in a limited release, and what comes in from it goes straight out again — to students beginning their studies, to Oldham County schoolchildren each August, and to brethren and neighbours having a bad month.

Square, Compass & Letter G

What is on the face of it

The Square, the Compass and the Letter G

The Letter G

Geometry — the foundation of knowledge and the pursuit of truth.

The Compass

Discipline, balance, and brotherly love.

The Square

A reminder to act with integrity and moral clarity in all we do.

The seal

Three things from this town, three lessons from the Craft

The lodge's seal puts a bird, a caboose and a wreath of beech and locust around the Square, the Compass and the Letter G. Each one is a piece of Pewee Valley, and each one carries a Masonic meaning. We are not merely a lodge — we are part of this place.

The Eastern Wood Pewee
Our Namesake · Harmony

The Eastern Wood Pewee

The small flycatcher that named the town in 1856, and stands for its wooded quiet. In lodge it means harmony — the chief strength of every institution, and the thing a lodge cannot do without.

The Red Caboose
Our Foundation · Progress

The Red Caboose

The landmark in the Town Square, honoring the years when this was Smith's Station on the Louisville & Frankfort line. It stands for progress, and for the Iron Road travelled by the brethren who came before us.

The Beech and Locust wreath
Our Heritage · Wisdom

Beech & Locust

For The Beeches, home of Annie Fellows Johnston, and The Locust, which gave us The Little Colonel in 1895. A town of stories. It stands for wisdom — the depth of what we inherited.

The other side of the coin

The reverse carries a sunburst behind the outline of the Commonwealth, with a star where this lodge stands, and the words Where Light is Preserved.

Around the base runs the promise the coin was struck on: proceeds exclusively for philanthropic purposes. Every coin supports the lodge's relief and charity work.
