5 Cent Encased Postage

Discover unique and collectible 5 cent encased postage stamps that add charm to your collection

Five-cent encased postage was one of the most widely used denominations during the Civil War era. It provided enough value for small daily purchases and circulated heavily among merchants and the public. Many examples feature well-known advertisements for patent medicines, dry goods, and local businesses of the 1860s. Collectors value these pieces for their accessibility, design variety, and connection to everyday commerce. Mid-grade examples are fairly available, while high-grade certified coins are far scarcer and highly sought after.
