Collectible coins can encompass a wide range of types, including patterns, which are experimental pieces struck to test designs or manufacturing techniques. The 1873 patterns from the United States, specifically those produced in Philadelphia, feature various designs intended to gauge public and official response before finalizing coinage. These coins are often highly sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and rarity. Patterns typically have limited mintage, making them a unique and valuable segment of American numismatics.
