The 1875 Philadelphia Trial Dime, a pattern coin, represents an early attempt to establish a design for the ten-cent denomination in the United States. These trial coins were produced in limited quantities to evaluate different designs and are distinct from regular issue dimes. Collectors prize such pieces for their historical significance and rarity, making them valuable items in numismatic circles. The 1875 Trial Dime is particularly notable for its unique design features and the insight it offers into the minting process of the era.
