1861 - Coins

Civil War Store Cards were issued during the American Civil War, particularly in 1861, as a form of currency in specific localities, such as Iowa. These tokens were typically made of metal and used by merchants to facilitate trade amidst the scarcity of official coinage. They often featured imagery or inscriptions relevant to the issuing store or the wartime context, making them both a practical medium of exchange and a collectible artifact that reflects socioeconomic conditions of the era. Collectors value these store cards for their historical significance and rarity.
