Unknown - Coins

Hard Times Tokens are a specific type of collectible coinage issued in the United States during periods of economic hardship, notably in the 1830s and 1840s. They were often used as substitutes for currency during times of inflation and coin shortages, emerging around 1832 through at least 1844. These tokens typically feature various designs and inscriptions, often reflecting political or social themes. The Rulau catalog is a key reference for identifying and classifying these tokens, with notable issues such as those from 1841 being recognized among collectors for their historical significance and rarity.
