after a little more research i belive the Token is in the late 1800s to the early 1900 boyscout good luck token. found one on ebay for $55

The token is actually from the 1930's and 1940's. It is made of bronze and was an arcade prize. The fellow on the front of the coin is a swami gazing into a crystal ball. You can probably guess what type of machine these came out of.

Not to be racist, but the guy on the token looks like an Arab terrorist. But seriously, the IDs provided are good.

Yeah, that freak Hitler ruined a good thing didn't he. Now everyone sees it as a symbol of hate instead of the good luck symbol for which it was for 10,000 years. Ridiculous.
I have a black lock box just like yours except it advertises a funeral home. It's for holding important papers, insurance policies, wills, birth certificates, a stack of $100's or whatever else floats your boat.
