Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, often include historical pieces that reflect significant eras and events. The Sou M, a French currency from the New World around 1762, was used during a time of colonial expansion and trade. Such coins are valuable to collectors due to their historical context, rarity, and the stories they tell about commerce and culture in the 18th century. The condition, provenance, and demand in the collector market also significantly influence their value.
