coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ P$10 \ Patterns \ 1874 \ Philadelphia
Collectible coins, such as the 1874 Philadelphia Pattern coins, represent unique or trial pieces that were produced to test new designs or technologies. The Patterns from this year are distinct as they were made prior to the official production of circulating coinage and often feature variations in design and composition. The United States Mint issued these patterns in limited numbers, making them highly sought after by collectors. The "P" in P 10 designates the Philadelphia Mint's production, with such items holding significant historical value within numismatics.
