In Poland they have a good luck charm known as the 'Jew with a coin':
>The Jew with a coin (Żyd z pieniążkiem,[1][2][3] also little Jew (Żydki),[4] or lucky Jew ("Żyd na szczęście")[1]) is a good-luck charm in Poland, where images or figurines of the character, usually accompanied by a proverb, are said to bring good fortune, particularly financially.

>The figurines are used as a good luck charm in the hope of becoming rich,[1][12] as well as good luck charms by football fans who then blame Jews if their team loses.[9][10]

>The figurines are often given as gifts.[14] Some are sold with "instruction manuals" how to use them to bring good fortune.[1] It is advised to turn them upside down on the Sabbath (Friday night[14] or Saturdays[17]) or place a coin (grosz, 1/100 of a złoty) behind the image so that money and good fortune may fall upon the household.[1][12][14][17] At homes the images are to be placed in the entrance hall to the left of the door (probably akin to mezuzah).[1][2][3] The figurines are also placed in offices and in shops next to cash registers.[17] According to a 2015 survey in Poland, 50 percent of respondents knew of the superstition of good fortune, 24 percent of the custom to place a grosz behind the frame, and 13 percent of turning it upside down on the Sabbath.[1]

>According to a 2015 survey conducted by Paweł Dobrosielski, Piotr Majewski and Justyna Nowak in Poland, 65% of respondents recognized the motif, 55% saw the motif at the home of family or friends, and 18% had such an object.[1] There was no correlation between respondent age and recognition of the motif, an affirmation that the motif is a recent introduction.[1] 50% of respondents were aware of the superstition that it brings financial good luck,[1] 24% were aware of the practice of placing a grosz behind the frame, and 13% of turning it upside down on the Sabbath.[1] Some 16% of respondents performed one of these rituals.[7]
