Did the US Mint ever make patterns for another country?

Given that the US Mint has made many patterns and has also minted coins for other countries, has the US Mint made patterns for other countries?
Here's one that the UK Mint made for Israel. I like the Britannia Moneta slogan.

As to that British piece, I don't think it was made for Israel. They used that star on some British West African coinage.
As for the Royal Mint pattern above, it was struck as a British pattern - as noted above the Star of David was used on British West African coinage during that era.
