Some people do this as a hobby and some collect coins because it will mean their value or worth is very high.
It depends on your definition of expensive, and on how seriously you pursue coin collecting as a hobby. If you want rare and valuable coins, their prices will be higher than less desirable coins. Coins vary in price from face value (one cent) to over 10 million US dollars. Some expensive coins include the 1974 flowing hair dollar (10 million USD) and the 1933 saint-gaudens double eagle (7.5 million USD). You can make coin collecting as expensive or inexpensive as you wish depending on the coins you purchase for your collection.
