1861 - Coins

Civil War Store Cards are a type of promotional coin issued by merchants during the American Civil War, specifically around 1861. These tokens were used in place of currency as a means to facilitate trade amid a currency shortage. Store cards from Rhode Island, like those from other states, typically feature unique designs that reflected local businesses and sometimes included patriotic themes. Collectors value these tokens for their historical significance and connection to Civil War-era commerce.
