A 16 character LCD display in all its 4-bit power. Powered by an Arduino One and connected to what is called a breadboard. The cables you see are needed, but the blue led was there just to fill an empty spot in the center of the image.
In theory, we should not see the darker squares. There is a potentiometer to the side (out of frame) that can be used to fix that. However, for the sake of the image, here I decided to leave them there.
Sure, the display may be a bit bigger than the coin, but the message will fit right in there and still have some extra space :)
(also, most components you see there are smaller than the coin, including the cables, the led and the two resistors almost completely out of focus)
Happy Monday everyone!
