Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, encompass a variety of types including patterns, which are experimental coins struck to test designs and technologies. The DT1c pattern from 1874, also known as the 1874 Indian Head cent pattern, features a design that was never adopted for general circulation, making it a rare and sought-after item among collectors. These patterns often showcase unique design elements and are typically made in limited quantities, significantly enhancing their value within numismatic circles.
