Unknown - Coins

Hard Times Tokens are private coinage issued in the United States during the economic downturn of the late 1830s and 1840s, particularly around the time of the 1840 presidential election. These tokens were often used as a substitute for currency during periods of coin scarcity and were typically made of copper or brass. The Rulau cataloging system assigns specific numbers to these tokens for identification purposes, and while many were produced without official government sanction, they serve as historically significant artifacts reflecting the social and economic conditions of their time. Coins from the year 1850 are particularly notable for collectors due to their relation to ongoing economic challenges and their representation of local merchants and communities.
