Ferguson's Iowa Trade Tokens book lists 16 issuing businesses with a total of 35 varieties from the town of Missouri Valley, IA. And that was in 1984. There is a new IA catalog in the works, I understand.

Although you have got info.from very knowledgible members,i just thought i'd add this(pics)&that the swastika token was a very common die used by many many CO.'S i have one from 1910/advertising on obverse.&since we are on the subject(value&I.D.)just-geese NAILED it,a token/coin,ANYTHING for resale is what someone is willing to pay(i'm willing to pay up to$500.00 for certain erie,pa.tokens!)Good luk&HH!
