What Makes a Coin Collectible
Coin collecting is personal to every collector. There's no right or wrong way to do it if you're interested in collecting coins, and you don't have to be wealthy to start a collection. The market value for rare coins varies from one coin to the next and isn't based on the denomination. Lincoln cents, the most collected series of coins, are the perfect example. They were all worth one penny in circulation, but the most collectible are worth tens of thousands of dollars today.
Factors that make a coin collectible include:
Rarity
Rarity is always going to play a role in coin collecting. The fewer coins there are the more collectible they become with each passing year. This shouldn't be confused with the date that a coin is produced or its age. Rarity is all about the number that's available for purchase.
Age
The age of coins is a point of interest for some collectors that focus on a certain era or time in history. Because coins have been used for so long, there are ancient coins dating back thousands of years.
Date and/or Location the Coin Was Minted
When and where a coin was minted can also make a difference. Some years more coins are produced than others at certain mints, and sometimes a coin is produced for a limited amount of time.
Historically Meaningful
The history behind the coin can make it more collectible. Commemorative coins are the perfect example since they are made specifically to commemorate a person or event, not serve as currency.
Condition
The physical condition of a coin is going to have an impact on how desirable it is to collectors. While a coin may be readily available in circulated conditions, it could be extremely rare and difficult to find in uncirculated condition!
