Any ideas what this is?

Despite his equipment problems yesterday, my friend did find this token. It's about the size of a half dollar and appears to be made of bronze or some type of copper alloy.

Here's one side of it:



The words at the bottom say: "The All Seeing Eye Guards You From Evil". The symbols clockwise from bottom left are a swastika, a key and heart-shaped lock, a four leaf clover, an elephant, a horseshoe, a rabbit's foot and a wishbone.

Here's the other side:



The inscription reads: "Good Luck Will Accompany the Bearer". Again, there's a swastika on the crystal ball.

We thought it might be some type of piece to a game, but after I cleaned it for him I'm not sure what it is.

I just got an input from another guy on the Whatzit Forum. It's probably from the 1930s and likely made by the Nelson Enterprise company. There's one on Ebay right now and the bid is up to about $34 which is equivalent to the silver value of the coins I found on the same site. So, I don't feel as bad as I did about him not finding any silver. His T2 showed this charm as a strong dime signal and my E-trac had it at 12-45. I'm pretty sure it's bronze, but I think that's an odd reading for a bronze target of such size (half dollar).

Really cool pld find...........I have a good luck token like that. It is a larger diameter than a large cent. My large cent reads 12-44, the good luck token reads 12-45.

Neat token, that would compensate for no silver.

I found one just like it in Tulsa years ago. Cool find.
