Collectible coins encompass a variety of categories, including patterns, which are trial strikes intended to test designs before official production. The 1872 Pattern coins from the Philadelphia Mint are notable examples featuring designs that may differ from standard issue coins. These patterns were created in limited quantities, often leading to their increased value and desirability among collectors. The United States has a rich history of coinage, with various models being struck to evaluate artistic and technical aspects before full-scale minting.
