Collectible coins are often categorized into several types, including patterns, which are trial pieces or experimental designs created to test new coinage ideas before official production. In the context of the United States, the 1974 P1c pattern is notable, showcasing the Mint's exploration of design and production techniques. Patterns can be highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance within numismatics.
