Collectible coins encompass a wide range of categories, including patterns, trial coins, and those issued by the United States. Patterns are coins struck using a design that was proposed but not adopted for circulation, often showcasing variations in size, weight, or imagery. Trial coins, on the other hand, are experimental pieces created to test new designs, metals, or technologies, and they typically have a limited mintage. In 1808, specific trial coins were produced in the United States, reflecting the Mint's efforts to innovate and improve coinage during that period. Collectors often seek these items for their historical significance and rarity.
