Collectible coins encompass a range of types, including historical coins, error coins, commemorative coins, and patterns. In the United States, examples include the 1776 Continental Currency coin, which symbolizes America's early financial system. The P50c refers to a specific denomination often found in U.S. coinage, while patterns are trial pieces created to test new designs or metals before official minting. Collectors value these coins for their historical significance, rarity, and artistic merit.
