In the United States, the Philadelphia Mint created several pattern coins in 1870, showcasing innovative designs intended for future currency. These coins are highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance, representing pivotal moments in U.S. numismatic history. Patterns often feature unique motifs or specifications that differ from regular issues, making them valuable additions to any collection.
