Collectible coins encompass a variety of types, including patterns, which are trial pieces created to test designs and compositions before mass production. One notable example is the 1792 Patterns from the Philadelphia Mint, which represent early attempts to establish a national currency for the United States. The P H10c, specifically, is a ten-cent piece with a unique design that serves as a significant artifact in American numismatic history. Collectors seek these coins for their rarity, historical significance, and the insight they provide into the early American monetary system.
