Collectible coins encompass various categories, including official currency issued by governments, commemorative coins, and private tokens. Tokens, often issued by businesses or organizations, serve specific purposes, such as advertising or as currency in localized areas. The California State Fractional Gold Tokens, struck in 1852, are a notable example of the latter; they were created during the California Gold Rush to address currency shortages. These tokens typically feature intricate designs and are historically significant, reflecting the economic conditions of their time.
