Explore 1935 Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation tokens for sale, a fascinating and scarce series of Depression-era issues connected to the federal effort to establish an agricultural community in Alaska’s Matanuska Valley. Commonly known as ARRC tokens, these pieces were issued by the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation for use by colonists participating in the historic Matanuska Colony project.

The 1935 ARRC tokens were produced in several denominations and served as a form of local exchange within the newly established colony. Their connection to New Deal-era resettlement, Alaskan history and the development of the Matanuska Valley gives the series significance extending well beyond traditional numismatics. Limited production and surviving populations have made original examples desirable among collectors of both tokens and historic American exonumia.
