State Quarters – The Easiest Way To Start A Coin Collection (numismatic rare coins)

numismatic rare coins:Since these coins are in great demand and will never be minted again prices of the state quarters have been increasing and some of the early state coins are worth $1.00 or more depending on condition. A specialty area of coin collecting known as error coins has also been able to participate with some flawed coins going for up to $500.

A whole new business has cropped up revolving around the state quarters program with many products like specialty coin holders enjoying immense popularity. Probably the most familiar example of this would be the United States map quarter holder. These holders are in the shape of a map of the U.S. and have places in each state for that state’s quarter to proudly reside. They also usually have little state facts printed by them which make for a great learning experience.

The State Quarters Program is an ideal way for anyone wanting to start collecting coins to get their feet wet, especially youngsters. It’s easy, inexpensive and you get a little dose of history as well.
