## Abstract

A mounted token system is configured to be worn by a wearer as a part of the grieving process. The mounted token system may include a token with an tracking indicator, a token mount, and a server. The token mount includes an anterior segment which includes an anterior opening, and a posterior segment moveable relative to the anterior segment. The token mount is configured to secure the token therein. At least a portion of the token is visible from an anterior side through the anterior opening. The server performs the following steps: present, to a first user via a graphical user interface, an invitation to provide information indicative of the tracking indicator of the token; receive, from the first user, information indicative of the tracking indicator; and store information indicative of the tracking indicator. The token may then be passed to a subsequent wearer, utilizing a new token mount.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A token configured to be secured in a token mount, the token comprising:
an anterior face configured to be displayed through a first opening of the token mount; and
a tracking indicator that corresponds with an assigned tracking number,
wherein the tracking indicator is configured to be entered into an electronic resource, such that the token is trackable as the token is passed to a future owner.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The token of claim 1, wherein the face presents an aesthetic design visible from outside the token mount.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The token of claim 1, wherein the token further comprising:
a posterior face; and
a rounded wall,
wherein the rounded wall is disposed between the posterior face and the anterior face such that the token presents a general cylindrical shape.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The token of claim 3, wherein the tracking indicator is displayed on the posterior face such that the tracking indicator is not visible via the first opening.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The token of claim 1, wherein the tracking indicator is selected from the group consisting of an alphanumeric sequence engraved into the token and a QR code printed on the token.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The token of claim 1, wherein the tracking indicator is stored on an RFID tag configured to be electronically read.
