Strike Type
Coin Details
Description
Merchant token from Pittsburgh of Pennsylvania, cataloged as Fuld 765R-1a. Pennsylvania was the Union's industrial heartland, with Philadelphia as a manufacturing center and Pittsburgh as an iron and steel producer. The token era ended in 1864, when Congress authorized a bronze cent and two-cent piece and outlawed private tokens. Collectors bought Civil War tokens even while they circulated, so numismatic strikes often survive in high grades.
