No. Even many of those who qualified did not always take one out. Sometimes, we just don't know. They were traded like baseball cards. Much like the headrights of an earlier era. Ditto for War of 1812, although in that last case they were taken a lot more seriously, and you are more likely to see them used where they could be used (Missouri, Arkansas) but even then they had traded hands once or twice (not always, of course.) In fact, the first big migration to Missouri from Virginia began after the War of 1812, and especially after it attained statehood as a slave state in 1821.
