Collectible coins encompass a broad range of items that are valued for their numismatic significance, historical context, or aesthetic appeal. In the United States, collectible coins include various denominations produced by the U.S. Mint, such as silver and gold eagles, commemoratives, and circulated coins with unique errors or rare minting dates. U.S. Mint medals, including those issued in honor of specific events or individuals, serve as a distinctive category within this collectible realm. Notable among these are pieces like the Julian 1849 medal, which represents a specific era and is often sought after by collectors due to its historical relevance and limited availability. The market for collectible coins and medals is influenced by factors such as rarity, demand, condition, and provenance.
