Collectible coins refer to numismatic items that are sought after by enthusiasts and collectors for their historical significance, rarity, or aesthetic appeal. In the United States, collectible coins include various denominations and series. The Braided Hair Cents, minted in 1850, are notable examples of early American coins featuring a distinctive design with a braided-haired female figure, which represents Liberty. The five-dollar gold coins, often referred to as "half eagles," are another significant denomination in U.S. coinage history, with specific designs and mintages contributing to their collectibility.
