Hm, see two scenarios here:

 

1. The second character () is an uncommon one but which reads ju, homonymous for ju (寿, longevity), which often comes in combination with the first one and forming fukuju (福寿), "long life and happiness." In short, a word play with ju/ju.

 

2. "Different" way of writing (福聚), which is an abbreviation of fukujukai-muryô (福聚海無量), a Buddhist slogan that means "The fortune of the Kannon is vast and immeasureable like the ocean."

 

Tending to #2 at the moment...

very cool guys.

 

Learn something new every day.... and that is as it should be. It never ceases to amaze me how deep this rabbit hole goes and how much fun the exploration of it is.
