Could anyone please tell me anything about the rarity of this coin or token? I have not been able to find it anywhere on the internet! Thanks! Jack.

Did somebody say Pig Flipper? As you can see, the basic design has been copied a few times. Your sterling silver example was most likely a souvenir from the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago.
