Patterns are experimental coin designs created by the United States Mint to test new ideas before adopting them for general circulation. The 1867 Patterns include several notable designs, such as the famous 1867 Indian Head cent and the unique Liberty designs. These coins typically feature distinct features that set them apart from regular issue coins and are often struck in different metals or with varying designs. Due to their limited production and unique nature, 1867 Patterns are highly sought after by collectors and can command significant premiums in the numismatic market.
