In 1874, the United States Mint in Philadelphia produced a series of trial coins known as patterns, which included the notable three-dollar denomination. These coins were designed to test new designs and minting techniques before official production. The three-dollar patterns feature designs that differ from standard circulating currency, making them particularly sought after by collectors. The rarity and historical significance of these trial coins contribute to their value in the numismatic market.
