1829 - Coins

Hard Times Tokens are a type of collectable coin that emerged in the United States during the economic depression of the late 1830s. These tokens were primarily issued between 1832 and 1844 by private merchants and organizations in response to the scarcity of official currency. Rulau is a reference to a cataloging system for these tokens, named after numismatist Russell Rulau, who documented various tokens issued during this period. The tokens often featured political themes, advertisements, and local designs, reflecting the economic and social conditions of the era. One notable year associated with these tokens is 1829, which marks the beginning of the economic troubles that led to their issuance.
