It's been coming since 1932!
My-Lucky-Ship-Just-Came-In
Prosperity Lucky Ship 1932 Good Luck Coin
White metal, 30 mm, 10.38 gm
Obverse:
Woman standing holding cornucopia, rising sun to right
PROSPERITY / 1932 / LUCKY COIN
Reverse:
Sailing ship facing right
LUCKY SHIP / SUCCESS TO YOU

This token was possibly manufactured to "cheer people up" during the Great Depression of the 1930's.

They have been used in a number of films as prop coins, including "Intruder in the Dust" (1949).

Here's my hope that we all find our Lucky Ship in the New Year!

Another one with the same error!
My-Lucky-Ship-Just-Came-In
Prosperity Lucky Ship 1932 Good Luck Coin - Second one

Apparently many were made with this error.

These tokens have appeared in several motion pictures including:

The Courtship of Andy Hardy (1942)
