Swastika Coin?

A

Anonymous

Guest
I recently unearthed a coin the size of about a half-dollar with what appears to be a reversed swastika with good luck symbols (four leaf clover, horseshoe, etc.)imbetween the arms of the swastika. The inscription "Membership of the Don't Worry Club" encircles the coin. The reverse side is harder to read but there appears to be an illustration of a flour or salt bag.
Any ideas or comments about this coin?
 
The swastika was a good luck symbol for hundreds of years before Hitler chose it as a symbol for the Nazi party. Since WWII it's been considered by many to symbolize evil, but there is a difference in Hitler's version and the original swastika. The Nazi version is tilted 45 degrees, the pic shows the original good luck version on the left compared to the Nazi version at right.

Thses are on a Armory in Konawa Oklahoma, I posted them one time on another forum, forgot what they mean. HH..Bj
 
That is the American Indian version of a good luck symbol JB is correct....HH...Geo
 
It actually goes back thousands of years. It was a standard sign with the American Indians long before we arrived. Old Adolph corrupted and perverted it.
