Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, encompass a wide range of types, including patterns, which are trial pieces created to test designs or minting techniques. The 1875 patterns are particularly notable, as they include experimental coin designs that were not officially issued for circulation. These patterns often feature unique features and are sought after by numismatists due to their rarity and historical significance, reflecting the innovative spirit of the U.S. Mint during that era. Collectors value these coins for their artistic quality and connection to the evolution of American coinage.
