Add Default Model To Start Of All Prints?

Is there an option to add a model to the beginning of a print by default? For example, printing a small coin right after the purge line, but before whichever file is being printed.

Would I need to consider inserting that model gcode into the "custom start G-Code?"

Thank you for your time.

Not heard of this, 
Probably best to consider saving a project with your coin already in the desired position.

so when you start a new model you open the project file,

then add your other models and use sequential printing to ensure that the coin prints first, if that is important.

I suppose so. I'll try updating an STL with an offest origin point and add that to the Shape Gallery. That way I can add it without adjusting the position. Thank you for the response.
