What should I do with it. Someone left it on the counter of the Coin Star and I took it. Maybe I will put it in the bag with my foreign coins. I found a really beat up penny, a Canadian penny and The Guardian Angel token.
The mailing that many get this coin in, says that blessings will come to you if you send then money, get a subscription , or both. The coin seems to be the same, just the message varies. Jim
I found one in a coinstar the night my grandmother died that had the angel on one side, and the message "Thank you for being there for someone in need" on the other. There are many versions.
Keep it for luck. Can't hurt to have a guardian angel for a pocket piece. I think that's sort of the idea with these things (aside from the motivation of the creators to drum up donations). @expat- cool, I had no idea stuff like this had a Numista listing.
What would have been really cool would be if they had made wooden discs the size of your typical wooden nickel, only out of olive wood or some other kind of wood from trees grown near some significant site in the Holy Land. Then woodburned the angel design into it. Of course that would have cost them more than the mass produced brass blanks for these tokens, I suppose. But that's the sort of devotional token I'd have made.
I have one that I keep in my wallet, but I can't remember where I got it. I might have found it on the ground at the fair, but as far as I know I didn't get mine in the mail.
I never seen one and never got one in the mail. I didn't think it was worth anything just wondered what it was.
I’ve seen them in the mail. I get a lot of charity comeons in the mail. You give to one, and then suddenly you’re on everybody’s list.
You have no idea how correct you are. I saw it all the time at the post office. It makes no difference what the organization is or does, if you send any money to any of them, then sell your name and address to other organizations and before you know it you overwhelmed with junk mail.
