What are the letters on it? I think I see G-O and U-K on one side.

 

[Ridley]

It's a copper coin/token. the other side has the letters ODLe.

Maybe it's a toy or part of a game?

I agree, definitely alien money!

Maybe some kind of brain teaser? G O and U K on one side and O D and L (C)? on the other? Put together and you get "GOOD LUCK" if the "E" could be a "C". Don't know what the design could be.

It's a spinner toy, spin it by holding it on edge and flicking it with your finger and you will be able to read "Good Luck" as it spins. Cool find! HH, Mike

 

[Ridley]

Thanks Mike and cheese!

I've never heard of that before!

Best of luck!

By golly, I think Mike figgered it out. I was stumped but intrigued.

Good call, Mike!

It's a Tom Mix "Straight Shooters" lucky spinner, a premium issued in 1933 by Ralston cereals, sponsors of the Tom Mix radio program. When the disk was spun, the designs in the center formed the Tom Mix "T-M Bar" brand.
