Collectible coins, often referred to as numismatic items, encompass a variety of types, including patterns, trial coins, and historical issues. Patterns are experimental pieces struck to test designs or minting processes, often created in limited quantities and highly sought after by collectors. Trial coins, including those from 1871, are typically produced to assess public and governmental reception before full production. The United States has a rich tradition of producing collectible coins, which can vary significantly in rarity, historical significance, and market value. Unknown issues often refer to coins whose origins or attributes are not clearly documented, adding an element of mystery to the collecting experience.
