In the realm of collectible coins, patterns refer to experimental coin designs or denominations that were never approved for general circulation. The 1866 trial coins, particularly for ten-dollar denominations, are notable as they provide insight into the minting process and the artistic choices made by engravers. These trial pieces, struck in limited quantities, are highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance, reflecting transitional phases in American coinage.
