Earlier this week I recovered a good luck token to the mill.
The token is somewhat unique having just these four elements in the design.
- the Four-Leaf clover; Wishbone; Horseshoe and a SWASTIKA...! No Rabbits' Foot though (how would you illustrate that...!) Yuck!

Across the top of the design are the words "Membership Emblem"
and across the bottom it reads " Of The Don't Worry (club)..." - damaged and heavy corrosion erased the last? words.

On the back are the words
"The Handy Dandy Good Luck Dollar
All The Luck In The World"
There's a manufacturing ? text, across the very bottom and unreadable....
I haven't cleaned it....... brass, I believe

NOW HERE'S WHAT i GLEANED OFF THE INTERNET ABOUT CLUB.... from:
(hope the link works, didn't test....)

Here is a very close likeness, 'cept mine doesn't have date of 1908...! How old is mine? No idea!
By the way, mine has the Rabbit's Foot too, just under the calk of the horseshoe.....

That is not a swastika, at least not a ‘Nazi’ swastika.
Your swastika on the coin is reversed. That was an Asian symbol for good luck. This would match the theme of the rest of the coin
