At Crash Course, we always want to provide more value than we capture. But making educational material that is well-researched, fact checked, and entertaining is expensive. We don't need you to give us money, but we do need *someone* to. If you're able to contribute right now, buy a Crash Course Coin at complexly.info/CCcoin26-19 and help us continue making high-quality education more accessible.

At Crash Course, we’re not choosing what stories to tell based on what's gonna make the algorithm happy. We're choosing to teach what needs to be taught. But not playing the algorithm game comes at a cost. It’s expensive to make high quality educational material, especially when you don’t cater to the whims of the Internet. Each video is worked on by 20+ human people who are absolutely devoted to quality and integrity, from subject matter experts to writers, editors, producers, animators, hosts, and the list goes on.
And that’s why we need you. Each year, we produce a new Crash Course Coin. And each coin that people like you purchase helps us reach thousands of learners.

Make some noise for the 2026 Crash Course Coins! You can get yours now at complexly.info/CCcoin26-19.
In an increasingly overwhelming information landscape, our 2026 coin design is inspired by our commitment to being signal in the noise. The soundwave represents our commitment to offering clarity, context, and meaning. (And fun fact: it's the soundwave for the words “knowledge weighs nothing,” which is part of a phrase we’ve printed on every Crash Course coin to date. “Knowledge weighs nothing: carry all you can.”)
Each coin that people like you purchase helps us reach thousands of learners with high quality educational material.
🪙The copper coin is $100 and helps us reach 2,000 learners
🪙The brass coin is $500 and helps us reach 10,000 learners
🪙The 20,000 learner coin is $1,000, made of colored titanium, and hand stamped with unique numbers. These will come with a thank you note signed by Hank and John Green!
🪙There are only 100 of our 100,000 learner coins available! These beautiful titanium coins are $5,000, numbered, and come with a signed thank you note.
🪙New this year by popular demand: the 200,000 learner coin! At 1.525" in diameter, the size of the coin reflects the impact of your donation -- BIG! There are only 20 of these bronze coins available, and they will be numbered and come with a signed thank you note!
