I dug this odd Coin today....seems to be solid copper..printing on bottom of rear of coin says.."GOOD LUCK WILL ACCOMPANY THE BEARER" with a swaztika on the ball under the figures hand. On front, above the "eye" it says "the all seeing eye" and below the eye it says, "guards you from evil" with differrent symbols spread out around the outer rays from the eye. HELP!!! Silver Half Dollar is in photo for size reference...

8). I thought I read somewhere that "the all seeing eye" had some connection with the masons but I'm sure there's more than one connetation to the symbol.
Nice find and HH.

The swami fortunme teller is a common feature of magician tokens. Some were generic for amatuers and others had the name of famous magicians on them. (blackstone, hoodini, etc. ) They were used for the hidden coin tricks, the coin out of the ear or cleavage tricks and they were used to practice sleight of hand coin tricks. sometimes they were a free bonus when you bought something else at a magic shop. exanimo, ss
