Territorial coins are a unique category of collectible currency that were minted in the United States during the 19th century, particularly around the time of the westward expansion. The 1861 Twenty Dollar gold coins are notable examples, as they were produced in that year of the American Civil War. These coins often feature distinctive designs and were issued by various territories before they achieved statehood, making them highly sought-after by collectors. The 1861 Twenty Dollar pieces, especially those struck in California, highlight the regional and historical significance of territorial coinage within the broader context of American numismatics.
