What is the value of gold state quarters?

Answer 1

i ve been coin collecting for many years and i have a full set of the state quarters in 24 kt gold both D and P mints these sets are becoming extinct! and will only rise in value right now the value is around 500$ depending on condition! 10 years from now......5000$ + these coins will never be struck again and gold is expensive! also silver and platinum quarter sets are rare (not as rare as gold) and highly valuable and easier to find! ive been offered 700$ for my set and im not selling because i cant find another set like it. good luck there are online places that sell these sets for 200$ but the quality is horrible!

Another viewThe amount of plating (gold, silver, or platinum) on these sets is minuscule so in and of itself it doesn't add significantly to their value. Remember, the underlying coins are nothing but ordinary copper-nickel quarters and the plating was NOT done by the US Mint, but by a number of private companies.

The real value to a set like this comes from its being complete. An individual plated quarter has almost no extra value, and in any case very few professional numismatists or dealers will touch these coins as numismatic items. Their value is more to collectors of novelty items who want to acquire a full set for display purposes.

But remember that plated coin sets are in essence "manufactured" collectibles akin to Franklin Mint cups or Beanie Babies, and the secondary market is very volatile. Even complete series of Beanie Babies plummeted in value when the market for them lost momentum.
