Besides the swastika, the Nazis used several other symbols, including the SS lightning bolts, which represented the Schutzstaffel, an elite paramilitary organization. The eagle and the Reichsadler (Imperial Eagle) were also prominent, often depicted clutching a swastika in its talons. Additionally, the Totenkopf (death's head) symbol was used by the SS to signify loyalty and the readiness to die for the cause. These symbols collectively reinforced the Nazi ideology and served as tools for Propaganda and intimidation.

What was the symbol Nazis?

The SwastikaThere were many Nazi Symbols, but the official symbol of the National Socialist party, and the one you are probably thinking of is the swastika.

What is the value of a 1910 Boy Scout good luck swastika coin?

The swastika originated as a good luck or sun symbol used by Hindu, American Indian and other cultures thousands of years before it was corrupted by the Nazis. The Excelsior Shoe Company was a supplier of official shoes to the Boy Scouts of America and issued a token with each pair.[linked] The copper token has a Boy Scout on a horse on the front and a large swastika with other luck symbols. A sterling silver version was given to the Scoutmaster when all his Scouts were shod with Excelsior Shoes. The Boy Scout Association in the UK issued a Thanks Badge in 1911 that incorporated the swastika. Uses of the swastika in Scouting ceased with the rise of the Nazi Party and the advent of Word War II. A price for the shoe token is difficult to determine without knowing the condition. The copper versions are not particularly rare and start at $10 to $20 on eBay.

The swastika was used by the Hindus to represent 'Peace' long before there were any Nazis. The Nazi swastika is usually drawn the other way round without dots in the spaces.
