Collectible coins often refer to numismatic items that hold value beyond their face value, appealing to collectors due to rarity, historical significance, or aesthetic quality. In the United States, patterns are experimental coins made to test designs or compositions before mass production. The 1866 Philadelphia coinage included various issues, notable for the transition in coin designs following the Civil War, and it is significant in collecting circles for its representation of changing U.S. monetary policies and designs.
