that coin is actually from what is called the "Chapter" which is under the York Rite. In order to find this out you need to petition the Blue Lodge, be accepted and raised to the 3rd* as a Master Mason, then petition the Chapter and earn the R.A.M. degree. Good luck in your travels.

This is a souvenir coin from a particular lodge. However, the "one penny" has a meaning from within the Masonic initiation, as explained to me someone I know who is a Master Mason. During the initiation ceremony (I don't know if this is for Entered Apprentice, Fellowcraft, or Master Mason), the candidate wears a very simple pair of trousers which do not have pockets. He is forbidden to take anything of value with him into the initiation. However, there is a point in the initiation at which it is ritually "demanded" that he give something of value to one of the individuals conducting the ceremony, or he will not be allowed to continue. After allowing the candidate to sweat in a bit of consternation for a minute or two, one of the other participants gives him a penny (or similar small coin) with which he can fulfill the demand. The lesson is that there will always be someone to help a Mason who is truly in need, and that he should not be afraid to either give or receive when the cause is just.

Lead a moral life, ask a Mason to help you join, pass investigation, pass a unanimous ballot, then work your way up to that degree and find out. Otherwise, it is simply not your business.

The Square and Compasses is one of the most prominent symbols of Freemasonry. The "G" in the middle has been claimed, without authority, to represent either God or Geometry.
