Civil War Store Cards are a specific type of collectible note or token issued by merchants in the United States during the Civil War era, particularly in states like Ohio. These store cards, typically made of metal or cardboard, served as a form of currency and were used to facilitate trade in local communities when conventional currency was scarce. The year 1861 is significant as it marks the onset of the Civil War, leading to a variety of these tokens being produced to meet immediate economic needs. Their rarity and historical context contribute to their value among collectors.
