Collectible coins encompass various types including patterns, which are trial pieces created to test designs before production. In the United States, patterns from 1870 are particularly significant as they showcase innovative designs that were never adopted for regular circulation. The P3CS designation refers to a specific grading within the Professional Coin Grading Service, used to evaluate the quality of collectible coins. Patterns from this era are highly sought after by collectors for their historical and aesthetic value.
