Collectible coins include a variety of types, with a focus on historical, rare, and unique specimens. In the United States, notable collectible coins such as the P50c, also known as the 50-cent piece, come with various designs and minting years, some of which can be significant due to their rarity. Patterns, particularly from the year 1877, represent experimental coins created to test new designs or denominations before being officially minted, making them highly sought after by collectors for their novelty and historical relevance.
