Civil War Store Cards are a type of collectible coin that emerged in the United States during the Civil War era, specifically around 1863. These tokens were issued by local merchants in Connecticut and other states to address the shortage of small change due to hoarding of coinage during the war. They typically feature the store's name and are made from materials such as brass or copper, making them distinct from regular currency. Collectors value these pieces for their historical significance and connection to the economic conditions of the Civil War period.
