Depression Era Tax Tokens

Depression Era Tax Tokens: In the spring of 1935 there appeared in several small communities throughout the nation the first of what was to be the saving grace of consumers for generations to come, the tax token.

The U.S. Congress has never enacted a sales tax. Such taxes are, however, common in the states and in municipalities. The first sales tax was adopted by Georgia in 1929. Subsequently, during the prolonged economic depression of the 1930's, many new sales taxes were enacted as emergency means of raising revenue to meet relief needs. After the emergency ended, most of the taxes were retained as a permanent feature of government financing. As the newly established sales tax went into force it was apparent that there was no provision for small payments. Different States began issuing tax tokens in a variety of metals, but during WWII all of the scrap metal was melted for use in the war effort and other material had to be found for tax tokens. This gave rise to the plastic piece featured here from the State of Missouri.
