What determines whether you have coins worth money?

A good question – especially if you happen to have inherited a coin collection and have never looked into this before.

Truth is, there is no single element that determines how much a coin collector is willing to pay for a coin. Rare coin value is actually determined by several factors, some of which are obvious while some are less so.

How many of those coins did they make?

Rarity is one of the most significant things to take into consideration. Coins that were minted in limited quantities or have a low survival rate will generally be more valuable.

And it probably goes without saying that rare coins in excellent condition are generally more valuable than those that are worn or damaged.

Coins that mark important events or periods in history are also often more valuable.

Older coins are generally worth more than newer ones to a collector while coins with minting errors are also often more valuable. Earlier this year, a 2022 Sally Ride American Women quarter that was mistakenly struck on a Jefferson nickel planchet generated a lot of excitement before going to auction.

Finally, coins with unique or attractive designs will likely be more valuable than those with more generic features.
