Collectible coins, particularly within the context of the United States, include a wide range of types such as patterns, commemoratives, and mint errors. The term "P 2 50" generally refers to specific coin varieties or denominations, such as the 50-cent pieces minted with a "P" mintmark. In 1884, the U.S. Mint produced various coins, including patterns which are experimental pieces created to showcase new designs or to test production processes. These patterns are often highly sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and unique historical significance.
