Strike Type
Coin Details
Description
Civil War store card from Connecticut, cataloged under Fuld Ct-Ha-19A. Connecticut was an arms-making center in the war, with Colt in Hartford and the New Haven Arms Company. Like most Civil War store cards, this undated token was issued circa 1862-1864 during the period when federal coinage was withdrawn from circulation by hoarders. Federal coinage vanished from circulation after 1861 as citizens hoarded silver and copper for their metal value, leaving merchants to fill the void with privately issued tokens. Die sinkers produced token dies on commission from merchants or speculatively for sale across multiple cities and states.
