Hey all,

Anyone know a good reference for Rexall coins?  This one has a 
swastika-like symbol on one side and a Billiken on the other.  The 
Billiken has a horseshoe beneath its belly.  It says "Optimistic and 
progressive order of rexallites" and more... I see the Billiken was 
produced in 1909 but do not know the end date for its popularity nor for 
the timing of these Rexall clubs (it also says "The Rexall store in my 
town is one of the 7000 best drugstores"). 

Thanks,

Linda
