In the realm of collectible coins, patterns and trial coins serve as important subsets. The United States issued various patterns, particularly in the 19th century, as potential designs for future circulation coins. The twenty-dollar gold pieces, often referred to as "double eagles," were particularly significant, with various designs emerging throughout their history. In 1860, trial coins were created to test new designs and compositions, which are highly sought after by collectors today due to their rarity and historical context. These coins, including the patterns from this era, represent both artistic and numismatic value.
