Collectible coins, such as patterns and commemoratives, are struck as samples or prototypes, often testing designs or minting techniques before regular production. The 1977 Philadelphia Mint patterns are notable examples, featuring unique designs that showcase artistic elements and minting innovations. These coins often attract collectors due to their limited availability and historical significance, reflecting the numismatic heritage of the United States. Patterns specifically are created for evaluation and are usually not intended for circulation, making them highly sought after in the numismatic community.
