Collectible coins can include various types, such as patterns, which are trial strikes made to test designs before final production. The 1885 Philadelphia Mint pattern coins are particularly significant, as they were created for potential inclusion in future mintages but were never officially issued. The "P" typically denotes the Philadelphia mintmark, which is associated with many historically important U.S. coins. These patterns are often sought after by collectors for their historical value and rarity.
