Collectible coins, particularly in the context of the United States, are often categorized into various types based on their historical significance and rarity. One highly notable example is the 1794 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar, which is often cited as one of the first silver dollars minted by the U.S. and represents a significant piece of American numismatic history. Patterns, or trial strikes, are experimental coins created to test new designs or technologies, and they can be of particular interest to collectors due to their limited availability and unique characteristics. The 1794 dollar is especially sought after for its aesthetic appeal and its role in the early days of American coinage.
