Re-started trying to collect coins in my Whitman Coin Folders. Agewise, they range from 1960's to 2002. I'm working on all types: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes, and Quarters. Assuming I collect all of them, basic math tells me that: Dimes= 73 coins X .10= $7.30 Quaters= 41 coins X .25= $10.25 Nickels= 65 coins X .05= $3.25 Pennies= 61 coins X .01= $.61 That gives us a total bill of $21.41 for the whole set. Considering, though, that they are all collected, would it be reasonable to up the price? Also, they are in not mint condition, more of a found-it-in-my-wallet condition. Would i expect to get a good profit from this in 10 or so years?
I think you'd be collecting for your own satisfaction. You're not going to make any money on modern coins.
There might be a premium for a complete set but it wouldn't be much. The value of collecting circulated coins is mostly in the hunt. (my opinion) Don't forget that if you include any coins 1964 and before you have to consider silver content for some.
