Collectible coins encompass various types, including regular issue coins, commemorative coins, error coins, and patterns, which are experimental designs. The United States of America has a rich history of coinage, with notable examples like the 1792 patterns, including the famous P H10c, which were produced as prototypes before the establishment of the U.S. Mint. These items are highly valued by numismatists for their historical significance, rarity, and artistic design. Collectible coins can serve as both an investment and a means to appreciate the artistry and history of currency.
