Collectible coins are categorized based on various criteria, including age, rarity, and historical significance. One notable type is the pattern coin, which is a prototype not intended for circulation, often used to test designs or specifications. In the United States, the 1871 Philadelphia Mint produced a series of pattern coins, including the P10c, which exemplifies the experimental nature of these items. These patterns are highly sought after by collectors due to their limited production and unique designs, making them significant in numismatic history.
