Patterns & Die Trials - Coins

Die Trials, often referred to as "Patterns," are experimental coins minted to test new designs, denominations, or technologies before mass production. These pieces are typically struck in small quantities and can feature unique design elements or modifications not found in regular issues. In the United States, die trials are historically significant and are considered collectibles due to their rarity and the insight they provide into the U.S. Mint's decision-making process. The DT 10 designation indicates a specific type of die trial coin, usually involving the number 10 as a potential denomination or identifier associated with the testing phase.
