California State Fractional Gold Tokens, minted in 1899, are collectible coins that reflect the historical significance of the California Gold Rush. These tokens were created during a period of economic expansion in the United States, particularly in California, and often served as a substitute for small denominations of currency. Due to their limited mintage and unique designs, they are sought after by collectors interested in American numismatics and the history associated with gold mining in the late 19th century. The exact mintage numbers and designs can vary, contributing to their rarity and value in the collectible market.
