Unknown - Coins

Hard Times Tokens are a type of metallic token issued in the United States during the economic depression of the 1830s, particularly between 1832 and 1844. These tokens were created as a response to the shortage of currency, serving as a substitute for coinage. Rulau, a reference to collector and author Q. David Bowers, often categorizes these tokens, which were typically made from copper or brass and feature various designs and inscriptions, often with political or social commentary. The term "Unknown" may refer to tokens that lack specific attribution or provenance, highlighting the diverse and unregulated nature of these issuances during the Hard Times period.
