Collectible coins, particularly those from the United States, encompass a variety of types, including patterns like the 1909 series. Patterns are coins struck to test new designs or denoms before official minting and can be highly sought after due to their rarity and historical significance. The 1909 patterns, designed by renowned engraver Victor David Brenner, are notable for introducing the iconic Lincoln penny. These coins are often valued for their artistic merit and limited production, appealing to both numismatists and investors alike.
