Was at a 1890 home site in the city this weekend. Best tone of the day, nice tight hightone, not deep.

Initially thought stacked LC’s, but ended up being 3 big tokens.

First one is a Good Luck token, first time I have found this type with the Chinese symbol. Cool that is dated 1915.
Next one is another Good Luck token. Hotel token, Detroit.

Last one is my favorite, ID’d by the What’s It forum team as a Charge Coin Token Tag from Boston.

What great tokens!

American 20th century good luck tokens are one of my thrills in life. Those and magicians' "throw out coins." The Don't Worry Club / Swastika pattern was certainly an item of its time and place -- i have about ten of them, each with a different obverse. Never have found one myself, but i have bought them from detectors!

Congratulations on a wonderful find!
