Rare Coin Values Have A New Rival

Rare Coin Values Have A New Rival
Rare coin values are often hard to distinguish but there is no doubt that he introduction of the world’s biggest, purest and highest denomination coin by the Canadian mint has excited coin collectors throughout the world. Looking for an old coin value is very popular but a new monster gold coin has triggered debate over old coin values as the new gold coin is the size of a large pizza !
The new gold coin has a C$ 1 million face value, but is worth more than twice that amount given the current gold price and many international orders have already been placed by wealthy buyers looking to grab these limited edition rare gold coins.
Coin pricing websites will struggle to place a value on this rare gold coin which is 53 centimetres (21 inches) in diameter and over 3 cm (1.2 inches) thick which makes comparison rather difficult compared to the traditional rare and antique Roman coins which many collectors cherish.
It is a much easier task to identify antique coins as they have a market value and history which helps an antique coin appraisal online. Collecting ancient coins can offers an insight into history and can provide a peek into the hidden lives of the private person in these long-lost cultures.
Enthusiasts of ancient gold and roman coins may not be excited by this new large gold coin as it certainly does not offer a historical charm but most probably just a novelty value. Other coin collectors may be more receptive as it highlights the fine art of coin collecting and may entice more people to take up this interesting hobby and even trade coins.
Love it or hate it, the introduction of the worlds largest coin has certainly contributed to the debate regarding rare coin values !

With the US mint pressing 50 state quarters, and recently will introduce a new $1 coin, how many of these coins will be taken off the market by collectors?
I have a jar of state quarters that I probably won’t spend, thus it is money that is no longer in circulation. This creates savings for the US government because they can just print the money and collectors end up paying for it.
How much does the US government save as a result of creating “collectable” coins?
the oldest penny i have is from 1911, i have a dime from 1945, and a little book of penny’s from 1941-1975 with s and d pennies in there and 3 steel ones..i also have vietnamese, canadian, japanese, and other foreign coins…would it be better to show a coin collector all of them at once or try to get different amounts of money by first showing the foreign ones than the old u.s than the pennies?
I am interested in current coins in circulation. I want to contact people in other countries to exchange coins (I send them sterling and euros and they can send me their local currency). Do you know if there is a coin collector’s website that might allow me to do that? Or some other way?
