<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 342424, member: 11521&quot;]The swastika was a good luck symbol for thousands of years before the Nazis changed its meaning.

This token was brass (I think) and the size of a silver dollar. It was issued by the Excelsior Shoe Co. and had a swastika and the words &quot;Good Luck&quot;. If I remember correctly it also depicts a man on a horse remeniscient of the Lafayette dollar. Seems like it was dated 1910 or 1912. I will post a pic of it if I can find it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
