I look around on the web and found a John Biller from Carroll in a 1920 Census and that was it. Did find a Frank Biller token on Ebay but different design maybe same relation and store. I wonder how old it is I know someone out there know the answer. Thanks HH all

John Biller was a laborer - odd jobs in 1910, a "repairer" for the railroad in 1920, but in 1930 he is shown as a restaurant proprietor. I'd date the token to the late 1920s. Ferguson's IA book also lists tokens from Frank Biller (John's son) and the partnership of Biller & Martes, both in Carroll.
