The Two Cents coin, minted in the United States from 1864 to 1873, is notable for being one of the first U.S. coins to feature the motto "In God We Trust." Patterns and trial coins serve as experimental pieces to test designs or minting processes before official production. The 1836 patterns, specifically, are part of a series created during a period of experimentation with new designs and denominations, contributing to the rich history of U.S. numismatics. Collectors often seek these items for their rarity and unique historical significance.
