Bruce Billiard trade token found

[IAsoldier]

Finally got out today and did some detecting up north in a town called Magnolia, IA. Didnt score much just this token and some clad.

Token says Bruce Billiards Good For 25C In Trade about the size of a 1/2 Dollar.

I believe that this "Bruce Billiards" maverick has been attributed to Council Bluffs, Iowa.

A token like yours sold for $5.55 on eBay back in April:

Another one sold for $3.30 in May:
