Blessing penny and lucky penny (consecrated coin)
A consecrated coin of low value that used to be kept in the purse so that it would never empty. – Despite strict ecclesiastical prohibitions and the reference to obvious superstition, this amulet (protective amulet: an object to which protection against mischief or supernatural, magical powers are attributed) is still widespread today. – See Benedict’s penny.
