[QUOTE="TheNickelGuy, post: 8218681, member: 20201"][SIZE=6][B]1932 Prosperity Lucky Coin[/B] [B]Lucky Ship Token[/B] [B][/B] [B][ATTACH=full]1442956[/ATTACH][/B] [B][/B] [B][ATTACH=full]1442957[/ATTACH] [/B][/SIZE] Perhaps has an FDR 1st term "Prosperity" theme, I have seen one with 50¢ on the reverse and the same obverse as this. I also found one that had "Old Ironsides" on the reverse commemorating it being rebuilt in 1929-1930 and launched. I thought I saw an error here and figured out what it was ... well, sorta. This is a Great Depression era token. I have seen a small percentage of these with and mostly without this issue of having the "Lucky Ship" and other lettering and waves showing reversed and all inverted. This appears to be a clashed die, or other issue and the error people may know what caused this. I took and reversed my image and inverted it and you can see the "Lucky Ship" on top. Some evidence of other details also show where on others I have seen only "Lucky Ship" is evident. Lucky Ship also appears to be doubled. I don't know, do we call it doubled clashed die? Crazy huh? It might be fun to pick up other variants of this "Prosperity" lucky coin. Click, it will get a little larger. [ATTACH=full]1442975[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
