1863 - Coins

Civil War Store Cards from Massachusetts, issued around 1863, represent a unique category of collectible coins often used as emergency currency. These tokens were created by local merchants and businesses during the Civil War due to the shortage of coins, specifically to facilitate trade. Typically made of materials like copper or brass, they often feature the merchant's name and sometimes specific imagery related to their business or the era. As historical artifacts, these tokens are valued by collectors for their connection to the Civil War and local commerce during that tumultuous period in American history.
