Collectible coins encompass various types, including official currency, tokens, and specialized issues such as state fractional gold tokens. The California State Fractional Gold Tokens of 1854 are a specific type of token that were used during the Gold Rush period, often functioning as a form of currency in local commerce. These tokens are characterized by their fractional denominations, which were more practical given the scarcity of gold coins at the time. Their historical significance and limited availability contribute to their value among collectors.
