Collectible coins encompass a variety of numismatic items, including currency, tokens, and historical pieces. Hard Times Tokens, which emerged during economic distress in the United States in the 1830s, served as an alternative form of currency and are often associated with specific historical events or localities. The Rulau catalog references coins and tokens, including those minted in 1827, offering detailed classifications and valuations for collectors. These items hold historical significance and are sought after by numismatists for their cultural and economic impact during challenging periods.
