Collectible coins include a variety of types such as historical coins, commemorative issues, and bullion coins. Tokens, while often used as currency substitutes or for specific purposes (like public transport or amusement parks), are not legal tender. In the United Kingdom, the 1/2d (halfpenny) coin was issued in various designs and metals from its introduction in the late 16th century until its discontinuation in 1984, making it a notable item for collectors interested in British numismatics. The 1/2d coin has distinct features and historical significance, appealing to those interested in British currency's evolution.
