Coins are standardized pieces of metal used as currency, typically issued by a government, with specific denominations and designs. Tokens, on the other hand, are not legal tender and are often issued by private organizations or companies for various purposes, such as gaming or transit. In the context of the United States, collectible coins may include commemorative issues, proof sets, and bullion coins, while tokens can encompass various styles and themes, including souvenir tokens from events or locations. North American tokens, which include those from Canada and Mexico, often reflect local history, commerce, and culture, differing significantly in design and purpose from government-issued coins.
