1861 - Coins

Civil War Store Cards are a type of collectible coin that emerged during the American Civil War, particularly in 1861. These tokens were issued by merchants in various states, including Minnesota, as a substitute for currency, which was in short supply due to the conflict. Often made of brass or other materials, these coins bore the merchant's name and were used for trade within local economies. They serve as historical artifacts, reflecting the economic challenges and adaptations during the war era.
