<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 95264, member: 4552"]Primarily already stated supply and demand. Note that as the population of the Earth increases, so dose the amount of coin collectors. Most young collectors start with pennies because of the cost. If the mint makes 100,000,000 pennies of certain year but there are 200,000,000 penny collectors out there, then the price goes up for one of them. If it is known that certain coins are required for buisnesses, such as quarters for vending machines, then more get damaged and again the price goes up. When the mint makes the stupid little dollars that no one wants, the price just dose nothing regardless of the quantity made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
