Collectible coins are typically categorized into various types, including historical coins, bullion coins, and commemorative issues. In the United States, collectible coins often include those from various historical periods and minting processes, such as the Merchant Tokens, which were issued for trade and commerce purposes. The Rulau reference, tied to numismatic literature, catalogs various types of tokens, including those from 1855, which may reflect specific local or merchant interests. Such tokens can hold significant historical, cultural, and monetary value among collectors.
