One of my favorite lucky token designs, whoever did the die engraving was very talented.
Excellent details you can see in the Swami Fortune Tellers Turban, face, hair in beard, fingers, nails and hands, and the many folds in his clothing (robe).
The obverse also shows him gazing intently into the crystal ball, with a swastika inside. (This was a ancient symbol for luck and good fortune, before the Nazis changed the meaning of it.)
Below the artwork in the exergue reads the following legend in old fashioned Western style font;
GOOD LUCK WILL / ACCOMPANY THE / BEARER
Medallion measures 32mm in diameter and has slight wear, nice brown original patina.
Obverse: Swami in turban gazes into crystal ball with reverse swastika
Legend: GOOD LUCK WILL ACCOMPANY THE BEARER
Reverse: All-Seeing Eye with swastika, heart-padlock, four-leaf clover, elephant, horseshoe, rabbit foot, wishbone
Legend: THE ALL SEEING EYE GUARDS YOU FROM EVIL
Here is some interesting history on the Swastika I thought I’d add in for informational purposes.
Courtesy of the WW;
The swastika symbol, (right-facing or clockwise) or ? (left-facing or counterclockwise), is an ancient religious icon in the cultures of Eurasia.
The left-facing version may also be referred to as sauwastika. It is used as a symbol of divinity and spirituality in Indian religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.
In the Western world, it was a symbol of auspiciousness and good luck until the 1930s when the right-facing tilted form became a feature of Nazi symbolism as an emblem of the Aryan race. As a result of World War II and the Holocaust, many people in the West still strongly associate it with Nazism and antisemitism.
The swastika continues to be used as a symbol of good luck and prosperity in Hindu and Buddhist countries such as Nepal, India, Mongolia, China and Japan.
It is also commonly used in Hindu marriage ceremonies.
The word swastika comes from Sanskrit: ????????, romanized: svástika, meaning 'conducive to well-being'.
In Hinduism, the right-facing symbol (I call it counterclockwise rotation), is called swastika, symbolizing surya ('sun'), prosperity and good luck, while the left-facing symbol (?)(I call this clockwise rotation), is called sauvastika, symbolizing night or tantric aspects of Kali.
In Jainism, a swastika is the symbol for Suparshvanatha – the seventh of 24 Tirthankaras (spiritual teachers and saviours), while in Buddhism it symbolizes the auspicious footprints of the Buddha.
In several major Indo-European religions, the swastika symbolizes lightning bolts, representing the thunder god and the king of the gods, such as Indra in Vedic Hinduism, Zeus in the ancient Greek religion, Jupiter in the ancient Roman religion, and Thor in the ancient Germanic religion.
The swastika is an icon which is widely found in both human history and the modern world.
In various forms, it is otherwise known (in various European languages) as the fylfot, gammadion, tetraskelion, or cross cramponnée (a term in Anglo-Norman heraldry); German: Hakenkreuz; French: croix gammée; Italian: croce uncinata.
In Mongolian it is called ??? (khas) and mainly used in seals. In Chinese it is called ?? (wànzì) meaning 'all things symbol', pronounced manji in Japanese and manja in Korean.
A swastika generally takes the form of a cross, the arms of which are of equal length and perpendicular to the adjacent arms, each bent midway at a right angle.
The symbol is found in the archeological remains of the Indus Valley Civilization and Samarra, as well as in early Byzantine and Christian artwork.
The right-facing swastika was adopted by several organizations in pre–World War I Europe, and later by the Nazi Party and Nazi Germany before World War II. It was used by the Nazi Party to symbolize German nationalistic pride.
To Jews and other victims and enemies of Nazi Germany, it became a symbol of antisemitism and terror.
In many Western countries, the swastika is now viewed as a symbol of racial supremacism and intimidation because of its association with Nazism.
In Hindu and Buddhist culture the swastika is a holy symbol. On the holiday of Divali, Hindu households commonly use the swastika in decorations.
Many Indian auto-rickshaws feature the swastika to ward off ill-fortune. Reverence for the swastika symbol in Asian cultures, in contrast to the West's stigmatization of the symbol, has led to misinterpretations and misunderstandings.
Great looking die work and design, for your collection today.
