Collectible coins encompass various categories, including historical, rare, and commemorative pieces. Patterns, which are trial strikes often produced to test new designs or denominations, hold significant value among collectors, particularly those from the United States. The 1890 coin patterns, such as the 1890 Morgan dollar or Indian Head cent patterns, illustrate the experimental designs of that era and are sought after for their rarity and historical context. Collectors value these pieces for their numismatic significance and the stories they represent in American coinage history.
