Book
A guide book of Civil War tokens / Q. David Bowers ; foreword by Susan Trask ; valuations editor, Steve Hayden ; reminiscence by Dr. George Fuld.
Civil War tokens are tangible reminders of this country's history. These small, cent-sized tokens served as emergency "money" during the small-change shortage of 1862-1865. Today they are highly collectible, and A Guide Book of Civil War Tokens elevates the collecting and study of these once-shunned imitation cents to a new level of scholarship and accessibility. Novice and experienced collectors alike, as well as history buffs and everyone interested in the Civil War, will find this volume a fascinating and indispensable reference.
