Collectible coins, also known as numismatic coins, include a wide variety of types that are often valued for their historical significance, rarity, and condition rather than just their metal content. The United States One Cent Penny, particularly the Indian Cent series, is a notable example, with the 1871 Philadelphia mint issue being a sought-after collectible. Indian Cents, minted from 1859 to 1909, feature a distinctive design depicting an Indigenous headdress, and their popularity among collectors is driven by factors such as minting errors, low mintage years, and overall demand in the numismatic market.
