Collectible coins encompass a range of numismatic items, including currency issued for circulation and commemorative pieces. Tokens, often used as substitutes for currency or for specific purposes like promotions or events, may lack legal tender status. In the context of the United States, various collectible types exist, including Civil War Patriotic Tokens from 1862, which were created to express support for the Union cause and feature designs reflecting the era's sentiments. These tokens serve as historical artifacts, showcasing the social and political climate of the time while appealing to collectors due to their unique designs and limited availability.
