<p>[QUOTE="1865King, post: 5363518, member: 103207"]Pattern coins are a different beast all together. I have a number of pattern coins but, i prefer coins that are very similar to the coins produced. Some patterns were actually die trials, testing if a metal is suitable striking or to show others for approval for use. Then there are others that were done for other purposes. Some were used to trade collectors for coins the mint wanted for the mint's own collection. Some were made a sold for a profit. "Midnight Minting"[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
