Collectible coins, often referred to as numismatic coins, include various types such as patterns, which are experimental designs created to test new coin concepts or designs before full production. The 1831 patterns from the United States of America represent significant historical examples of coinage experimentation. These patterns were produced in limited quantities and often feature unique designs, making them highly sought after by collectors. The "P 2 1 2" designation likely refers to a specific variety or cataloging system used to identify and categorize these unique pieces.
