Collectible coins encompass a wide array of types, including but not limited to historical coins, commemorative issues, and novelty coins such as elongated coins. Elongated coins, often created by pressing a blank coin through a machine that flattens and embosses designs, have gained popularity among collectors, particularly in tourist areas. The Martin Dow elongated coins from 1962 represent a specific niche within this category, reflecting unique themes or events but lack extensive documentation or known value benchmarks, making their appreciation subjective among collectors.
