Found this at an old homesite in the woods I first checked out last fall. It's now been dozed flat and the cellar filled in with the foundation stone.
"Insurance Credit System" was the name of the co. that issued the tokens, and this one was patented in Jun 1919. They were bought out in 1924, so that gives a date range for this one.
