Collectible coins are items that are valued not only for their monetary worth but also for their historical significance, rarity, and condition. In the context of the United States, various types of collectible coins include vintage currencies, commemorative coins, and bullion coins. The John Parsons Company, associated with the minting of coins in the 19th century, produced several notable pieces, including some rare collectibles from 1861. Coins from this era can be particularly sought after by numismatists due to their limited mintage and connection to significant historical events.
