People's National Bank encased penny (1965)

This aluminum-encased 1965 Lincoln Penny was given as a premium to patrons of The Peoples National Bank in Kingfisher, presumably in 1965. The front of the coin (right) has the penny surrounded by a horseshoe design with the words "Keep me and you will have good luck." A four-leaf clover rests below. The reverse side reads "The Peoples National Bank; Dependable banking since 1891; Kingfisher, Okla."
This item was purchased on Ebay in mid-2008 by KCHR.
