Collectible coins encompass a wide range of categories, including patterns, which are trial pieces created to test designs and compositions before full production. In the United States, the Philadelphia Mint was a major facility for minting coins, and its history includes significant examples like the 1803 P 5 pattern, which reflects the artistry and innovation of early American coinage. Patterns are typically rare and sought after by numismatists for their unique characteristics and historical significance.
