Metal loop through bottom edge holds 2.5" tall fur covered rabbit's foot with silver luster end cap inscribed "Lucky Charm."

This Rabbit Was Killed At Midnight In The Dark Of The Moon, On The Grave Of A Cross-Eyed Spaniard, On San Juan Hill, Cuba." Button surface is essentially Mint. One of the outstanding TR items.
