The state quarters are actually 25.361 cents. Making them worth more than the odl 25.001-cent quarters.

The older ones are more valuable obviously. You could sell them if they're old enough for big bucks; but of course, the new ones are cleaner and shinier.

It's because they have pretty pictures on the back you can marvel at. Plus they're shinier than the OLD ones.

Doesn't make a difference to me.
But the old quarters would be worth a lot of money a few years from now. |

I collect them (as well as the old quarters), but they don't seem that much more special to me.

i used to collect them, but i spent all of them and now i feel guilty ><
right now i'm looking for the wisconsin one; cuz well... http://money.cnn.com/2005/02/09/pf/wisconsin_quarter/ "A mistake in the minting process for some quarters issued last year is putting coin collectors in a frenzy. Speculators are bidding up prices for the recently discovered pieces from their 25-cent face value to nearly $1,500." |
