This achievement is awarded at the end of a little secret in the Adventure Guide. It takes five weeks to complete.
Each week (after reset), open your Adventure Guide (Shift+J), select the "Suggested Content" tab, and in the left pane scroll all the way to the right. You'll get one of these quests, in order:
- Week 1 - A Piece of Copper - Rewards 1c and the achievement Lucky Penny.
- Week 2 - A Piece of Silver - Rewards 1s
- Week 3 - A Piece of Gold - Rewards 1g
- Week 4 - A Bag of Gold - Rewards 10g
- Week 5 - A Curious Coin - Rewards [item=202107], the achievement Curious Coin, and a message from our mysterious benefactor.
The only other "Shadowscrawled" item in the game is [item=164942] written by [npc=133422], an ethereal. And curiously, this coin uses the same icon as [currency=3303], later added with and found on K'aresh.

Click the Sweet, free money! button which appears on the last scroll page of the Suggested Content tab in the Adventure Guide. That gives the quest A Piece of Copper, which starts the multi-week process to make it to the final button which rewards this achievement and a grey trash item worth ~100g.
It takes 5-6 weeks (estimate) to get to this achievement from the first one, which is Lucky Penny.
Anyone know how to get this one?
