Collectible coins encompass a variety of numismatic items, including currency minted for specific purposes, commemorative pieces, and historical tokens. Tokens are typically issued by private entities and can represent value for goods or services rather than serving as legal tender. The United States has a rich history of collectible coins, including state-specific issues. California State Fractional Gold Tokens, minted around 1920, are a notable example, representing small denominations of gold that were used during the 19th century gold rush, often sought after by collectors for their historical significance and unique designs. These tokens are considered a fascinating aspect of American numismatic history.
