Collectible coins can be categorized into various types, including standard coins, tokens, and commemorative issues. Tokens, unlike government-issued currency, often serve purposes such as advertising, gaming, or as commerce substitutes. The United States has produced a variety of coins, including the ten-dollar denomination, which has historical significance. Early American tokens, like those cataloged by Rulau, emerged in the 19th century as a response to currency shortages, with some notable pieces dated back to 1886. The designation "N A" typically indicates a non-attributed piece in numismatic classification.
