Hard Times & Civil War Tokens thread

Post your Hard Times and Civil War tokens! (19th century and earlier merchant tokens are fine, too.)

I liked the antislavery theme on this one. It is no longer mine- I just gifted it to a friend. I might get another, higher-grade example of this type someday (or one of the British Conder tokens that also used the same design).








I love Monitor tokens. I used to own an MS65 example of this type, but I think this 63 in my current collection has nicer eye appeal.

 

This one isn't a HTT or CWT, but rather a merchant token from the Antebellum South, which makes it interesting. Since I sometimes wear a top hat to coin shows, I also liked the hat motif. I also like how some of the merchant tokens of this era had an eagle that resembled the one on the gold coins.

 

Fun find, @paddyman98! I dug some cool old tokens over the years, when I was a detectorist, but never a Civil War token. (Other Civil War relics, sure, but no CWTs.)
