USA, Civil War tokens
    As soon as the Civil War started all of the coins disappeared into mattresses and holes in the ground.  The government resorted to paper money, which it had not done before.  For small change many northern merchants issued tokens.  Several thousand types were created before they were prohibited late in 1863.
