1856 - Coins

Merchant tokens, specifically from the Rulau series, refer to privately minted tokens used by merchants in the United States during the 19th century, particularly around 1856. These tokens served as currency in local commerce and were often used in lieu of official coinage in areas where coins were scarce. The Rulau catalog categorizes various tokens based on their design, issuer, and regional significance, making them popular among collectors for their historical value and connection to local businesses and economies of the time. Collectors often pursue these tokens for their rarity, artistry, and the stories they represent from American economic history.
