5个严重的硬币竞争者：从1794年流动的头发角色到1909-S VDB Lincoln Cents

该硬币在1794年和1795年被铸造，原始面值仅为1美元。尽管如此，其相对稀有性 - 估计只有150个

The secondary market for coins has seen a surge in recent times, driven by factors such as inflation and the increasing exposure to live sales platforms, such as WhatNot, which have dispersed coins more widely. This expansion is also being fueled by the integration of coins into avenues like DeFi and Web3.

硬币的二级市场近期激增，这是由于通货膨胀和对实时销售平台的增加（例如Whatnot）的增加驱动的，这些销售平台已经更广泛地分散了硬币。将硬币整合到诸如DEFI和Web3之类的途径中，这也是如此。
