Collectible coins are often categorized based on their historical significance, rarity, and unique features. The United States' three-cent coins, issued in the 19th century, are notable for their small denomination and are primarily divided into two types: the three-cent silver and three-cent nickel. Patterns and trial coins, such as those minted in 1870, are experimental pieces created to test design or coinage technology and are typically produced in very limited quantities, making them highly sought after by collectors. These coins can exhibit distinctive characteristics that set them apart from regular circulation pieces, enhancing their numismatic value.
