Billiken lucky coin token.   Unknown vintage.  Shipped in a thick plastic coin pouch.

 

Billiken replica token.  Copper color.  Very nice condition, minimal wear--slight scratching and possible tiny edge dings from being processed and stored with other coins.   Slightly thicker than a United States quarter coin.

 

BILLIKEN, "The god of things as they ought to be"  the front states.  Copyright 1908 by the Billiken Company, Chicago.  The back reads: 

I am the God of Luckiness

So always keep my nigh

Misfortune's frown will disappear

At one flash from my eye

Be sure that I am on the spot

When projects you begin

I am the God of Luckiness

My name is Billiken

 

GOOD LUCK above the poem, and POCKET PIECE below the poem.


It is quoted in Wikipedia:  "To buy a Billiken was said to give the purchaser luck, but to receive one as a gift would be better luck."
