Merchant tokens, also known as trade tokens or store tokens, are a type of numismatic item that originated in the 19th century, particularly prevalent in the USA around the 1860s. These tokens were issued by private businesses for use as currency within their stores, often redeemable for goods or services. Rulau’s catalog includes a variety of these tokens, cataloging their designs, issuing entities, and historical significance, highlighting their role in local economies at the time. Merchant tokens are collected for their unique designs, historical context, and connection to local businesses, often reflecting the culture and commerce of their era.
