Patterns are coins that are struck to showcase potential designs for future coinage, often created in limited quantities. The 1873 United States Pattern coins are notable examples, as they were produced during a period of experimentation with new designs and denominations. These coins are highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance, reflecting the evolving nature of U.S. coinage at that time.
