Finally silver, some religious stuff & NAZI BOYSCOUTS ??

Went out to a couple of spots today, first was a yard in the country that has produced ALOT of pennies, wheats & IH. Then we hit the spot that gave me my LC, ended up breaking the silver drought there(YAY MERC !!!). Over the last two days I have hit several cool religious medals, I don't read latin so I don't know what they say, but the round one in the 2nd pic, I'm pretty sure is silver. We have also hit the usual trash and clad and about 2 dozen wheats between my buddy and I.

Now for the weird one. I dug the last token today at the yard that turned up the LC, I thought it might have been another one, but......um.....nope. I am just curious if anyone knows anything about the symbolism, I understand the horseshoe, clover, etc... as "lucky" symbols, but whats up with the swastika ?? Just curious - HH, all.

Awesome find! The Swastika symbol has been a symbol of power and good luck for more than 3000 years. I was surprised to see the symbol on a Roman vase in England dating almost 2000 years old. Hitler killed it around 1935, now I often dig coins from WWII with swastikas here in Germany. History is very cool, especially when you hold it in your hand after digging it up. HH, Mike
