Coin collecting is a popular hobby that involves acquiring and studying coins, often focusing on historical significance, rarity, and condition. Collectible coins can include various types, such as patterns, which are experimental coin designs created for evaluation before mass production. In the United States, one notable example is the 1874 pattern coin struck in Philadelphia, which reflects the artistic and technical advancements of the era. These patterns are highly sought after by collectors due to their limited mintage and unique designs.
