Patterns are experimental coin designs created by the United States Mint to test new concepts or modifications for potential circulation coins. The 1875 patterns are part of a broader series that sought to update the designs used for various denominations. These coins are often produced in limited quantities, making them highly sought after by collectors. The rarity and historical significance of 1875 patterns particularly enhance their value in the numismatic market.
