Unknown - Coins

Hard Times Tokens are a type of political or economic token issued in the United States during the economic downturn of the late 1830s and early 1840s. They were often made of copper and served as a substitute for currency when coinage was scarce. The tokens typically featured various designs, including political messages or advertising for local businesses, and were not officially sanctioned by the government. Rulau is known for cataloging these tokens, with many examples dating back to around 1849 being categorized as Unknown due to their limited historical documentation.
