| Title | ¢10 Summit County Bank Note |
| Description | This fractional bank note was issued by Summit County Bank in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. It was worth $0.10. Fractional currency was issued between 1862 and 1875. Paper money was issued in values normally seen in coins due to the shortage of the coins. They were in short supply for commerce because many were adopted for use by foreign markets and some were hoarded by people who didn't trust the paper money of the US during the Civil War. Additionally, metal was scarce during the Civil War. |
