(No Date) Civil War Store Card F-345A-1A, CT
Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
Civil War store card from Connecticut, cataloged as Fuld 345A-1A. Connecticut was an arms-making center, with Colt in Hartford and the New Haven Arms Company. This undated piece entered commerce during the 1862-1864 period when millions of private tokens replaced vanished federal coinage. Civil War tokens addressed a practical problem: the wartime disappearance of federal small change made daily transactions nearly impossible without private substitutes. The Fuld catalog lists over 10,000 die and metal varieties of Civil War store cards.
