Aren't these patterns supposed to be in Coins?

There are a number of coin patterns - including those with a face value - on the exonumia side of numista. I was looking to add a few patterns only to notice that they were already put in exonumia and so wanted to confirm if this is common practice and if so, why considering that they do have a face value making them a coin rather than a round or round pattern. Here is an example of one of the coin patterns I was going to add.

Thanks for clarification

Uniface patterns should be in Exonumia.

 

For categorization purpose in the Numista catalogue, coin patterns and trial strikes that look like a complete coin (both obverse and reverse are struck) and with a real coin design (the design was intended for a real coin, even if it may not have been selected for definitive coinage, and even if it may have a small inscription “trial” or equivalent) are listed in the “Coins” category (example). Other kinds of patterns and trial strikes are listed in the “Exonumia” category (examples: non real coin design, non complete coin).

Thank You so much for the clarification.
