A Couple of Unknowns from yesterdays hunt, need help.

[Shark27]

I usually only coin hunt but yesterday I decided to do a little off the beaten path relic hunting in a nearby military community and I found these items. The silver item has the writting "I LNVE. ED KROHER" and an American Flag in the center. The back of the coin says LUCKY and has a star.

The leafy item is hard non bendable and has 4 loops on the back side of the clip piece, which is possible bent over. Prior to cleaning it up I thought it was a medal.

Any help would be appreciated.

the Aluminum Token
is actually a Good Luck token
from a Bus station , carnival or ?
machine.

You put a coin in, turn a Knob to the letter you
want & Push a Button & It stamps them in it.

Looks like She realy didn''t take the time to
be sure She had the right letters.
"LNVE" N instead of O

Some hung them from key chains
after making them,
Others (Lovers) would
put heir names on and
hang them around their neck
or carry them in their pockets.

I Remember them from 60's Carnivals.

Still find them on occasion.

A Freudian slip perhaps ? L..NVE

And the Oak leaf thingy , is a clasp of some sort

Thanks Jeff! The n instead of o was throwing me off, i figured it was an error but I thought it might be some type of decoder thing or something. So you think it's from the 60's huh...cool. Any thoughts on the leafy thing? Do you think it's a clasp of some sort?
