Its a 1933 F.D.R commemerative I think. On the back is a pic of the US and it says "follow the Roosevelt trail". This is not my coin, but my friends, and he wanted me to ask you guys! Rob http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/1488/coins0019na.jpg its the second up from the bottom left http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/2600/coins0023qq.jpg same here These are my friends coins, and he wanted me to help him with their value. If you see anything else that might be worth mentioning, please do!
That's my guess too. One thing is for sure - it is not a "coin". The overall appearance, including legends, is definitely more medal-like than token-like, and it doesn't appear to be struck in any precious metal, so it's not a bullion round.
Although not worth a lot monitarily, at the rate coins and tokens are increasing in value, you may want to mention to your friend to hang on to them. A mart thing would be to put them in a 2x2 holder to help keep the fingers off.
I have one, here is what I found out about these tokens: Obverse: LUCKY TILLICUM / REBUILD WITH ROOSEVELT Reverse: PROSPERITY / 1933 / FOLLOW THE ROOSEVELT TRAIL Diameter: 27mm According to a New York Times article published October 7, 1932, "The word is from the Indian, signifying good luck", and "The slogan, it was said, was fashioned by Colonel Edward M. House" (Colonel House was President Wilson's number one assistant) The phrase "Lucky Tillicum" was a popular expression at one time It appears in the October 3, 1918 issue of "Printer's Ink", a New York advertising magazine the owner, who was a good business man, began to realize that Bill Jones was a lucky tillicum to have around the place
