Collectible coins encompass various types of numismatic items, including patterns, which are trial pieces created to test designs before mass production. One significant example is the 1862 P50c pattern coin from Philadelphia, which features distinctive designs that never entered circulation. Collectors value this coin for its rarity, historical significance, and connection to the United States Mint's operations during the Civil War era. The P50c patterns are sought after for their unique characteristics and representation of the evolution of U.S. coinage.
