Civil War Store Cards are a type of collectible coin issued during the American Civil War, primarily used in Massachusetts. These tokens were created by local merchants in response to the coin shortage caused by the war, allowing for trade and commerce to continue. Typically made of brass or copper, they often feature a design that includes the merchant's name and location, making them significant not only as currency but also as historical artifacts that reflect the economic conditions of the time. Collectors value these tokens for their rarity, regional significance, and the insight they provide into the everyday life during the Civil War era.
