The registry
The Founding Hundred.
One object earns a number: the sewn wall pennant, registered to a name. Everything else just gets worn.
One hundred. Then no more.
The Pennant, No. 001 through 100.
Sewn wool felt, numbered by hand, 37/100 the way a print is numbered. Each one is registered to a name, held in the book, and never issued twice. The lower the number, the earlier you believed.
The book
Choose your number.
Open numbers stand blank. Claimed numbers carry a name and keep it forever.
Nos. 001 through 005 are held by the Registry. The rest are open.

What a claim is
Registered, the old way.
Yacht clubs have traded burgees for two centuries; the visiting flags on the clubhouse wall honor everyone who came before. This registry works the same way. Your pennant hangs on your wall, your name stays in our book, and when the first drop opens, the Hundred hear first.
