1863 - Coins

Civil War Store Cards are a specific type of collectible coin that emerged during the American Civil War era, particularly in 1863. These tokens were issued by merchants and businesses in Maine and other states as a form of currency due to the scarcity of coins at the time. Often made from materials like brass or copper, Civil War Store Cards were used to facilitate local trade and were embossed with the name of the business or its proprietor, making them unique and sought after by collectors. Their historical significance and limited mintage contribute to their appeal among numismatists.
