I have read it was used during the Civil War years for the first time in the United States.
The Civil War occurred AFTER the American Revolution, so those thirteen "original" colonies had long since become STATES. At the time the Civil War broke out in 1861, there were 33 states, of which 18 were "free" states and 15 were "slave" states.
I am afraid you are confused. By the time of the civil war there were no colonies. The United States was established in 1789 and the civil war started in 1861.

Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware. West Virginia was also formed during this time period and remained loyal to the Union. Slaves in these states were not freed till after the civil war; not even by the Emancipation Proclamation.

Kansas, West Virginia, and Nevada all became states between 1861 and 1865, the time of the US Civil War. Kansas actually achieved statehood January 29, 1861 before Fort Sumter was bombarded so, depending on your point of view, it may or may not be counted among the states formed during the War Between the States.
There were about 4 million slaves in the south during the time of the Civil War.
One of them is Marryland.
During the course of the US Civil War, the Northern states vastly outnumbered the states that had formed the Confederacy. Depending on the time frame of the war years, there are small differences. One item is clear, the Confederacy consisted of eleven states and the Union had 23.
The Capital of the United States was located in Washington DC at that time, and still is today.
During the Civil War tokens were used for distributing in the United States. At this time you could not distribute anything unless you had a Token. This was used for safety purposes.
