Something from my bar whenever I feel like it episode CCCLXVII

Stretching the 2 in 2 for Tuesday again. This time something with 2 sides. It's an old lucky nickel. No clue how old it is. There appears to be a year stamped on it but I think it is just 30 for 1930. That is the date the Terminal Tower opened in Cleveland Ohio. This is apparently a souvenir from there so the date is probably not the year the coin was made but the tower opening. The coin has a buffalo on it similar to the old buffalo headed nickels. On the back are 6 lucky symbols: horseshoe, rabbits foot, elephant, wishbone, 4 leaf clover, and a cornucopia. A small picture of the Terminal Tower is in the center. Around the outside it has health, happiness, and wealth. Not sure if it's worth anything. I couldn't even find any info on it or a pic of another one. Google failed me. Even if it was you are not going to carry this nickle in your pocket though. Well at least not unless you want your pants around your ankles all the time. It's pretty big and heavy. I put a pic with it beside a regular nickel for comparison.
