Collectible coins encompass a variety of categories, including historical issues, commemoratives, and novelty tokens. In the United States, collectible coins often feature designs that reflect significant events, figures, or periods in American history. Merchant tokens, such as those cataloged by Rulau, represent a distinct category of numismatic items that were issued by businesses as a form of currency. The 1847 tokens and their variants are specifically sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and rarity, although many remain unassigned to specific issuers or minting histories, leading to their classification as "unknown."
