Lucky Boy was a town in Mineral County, Nevada, approximately 5 mi (8.0 km) southwest of Hawthorne.
The Lucky Boy Mine was located east of the town on the east slope of the Wassuk Range, discovered by men repairing a stage road over a pass. A post office was established March 19, 1909 and discontinued October 31, 1913.
A serious stage coach accident occurred near Lucky Boy in 1909, when "six spirited horses took fright" and then "dragged the passengers down a steep grade at lightening speed".
