Collectible coins, especially those from the United States, encompass a variety of issues that attract numismatists. Among these, pattern coins and trial coins represent unique pieces created to test new designs or compositions before official minting. The 1987 five-dollar coin is an example of a specific issue that can include both commemorative and distinctive designs. Collectors often seek these coins for their rarity, historical significance, and the artistic value of their designs.
