Collectible coins encompass a wide range of numismatic items, including patterns, which are experimental pieces struck to test designs. The 1873 One Dollar pattern coins produced in Philadelphia are particularly notable, as they were created during a transitional period in U.S. coinage when new designs were being evaluated. These patterns, often produced in limited quantities, hold significant value among collectors due to their rarity and historical importance within the context of American currency development.
