Coins are legal tender issued by governments, typically featuring standardized designs and compositions that designate their face value. Tokens are usually privately issued and may serve a range of purposes, such as advertisements or casino currency, but are not considered legal tender. In the context of the United States, collectible coins can include a variety of series, like the Civil War Patriotic Tokens from the 1860s, which were created to express political sentiments, commemorate events, or promote causes during the turbulent period of the Civil War. These tokens often feature imagery and slogans that reflect the era's patriotic fervor and societal concerns.
