Hard Times Tokens are a type of coinage that emerged in the United States during the economic difficulties of the 1830s. They were privately minted in response to a shortage of official currency and often feature political messages or advertisements. The Rulau catalog lists various issues of Hard Times Tokens, with many dated around 1834, reflecting the socio-economic conditions of the era. These tokens are considered collectible for their historical significance and unique designs.
