Collectible coins can encompass a wide range of types, including historical coins, commemorative issues, and merchant tokens. Merchant tokens, such as those cataloged by Rulau, often served as currency for specific businesses during the 19th century, including those from 1844. These tokens are typically less common and can vary significantly in design and material. In the United States, collectible coins may also include items of national significance, reflecting the nation's economic history and cultural milestones. Coins are collected for their historical value, monetary worth, and artistic design.
