Would those coins be worth more than .25cents.

Maybe slightly, but rarity is a huge factor for collectors items like this. Since they came out, tons of people have collected them, and there are so many in circulation that there's almost no rarity.
A complete set may fetch you a little more than $12.50, but I wouldn't bet on it going for much more.

If you had a complete set it would, but that consists of the circulation strikes P & D mints plus the S proofs as well as the silver proofs.A complete sent is not just 50 coins. A set of just 50 taken from change, will not be worth a premium for many generations to come. The normal everyday circulation strikes were made in the 100's of millions and roll after roll were saved. The proof clad and silver proof coins do not have such a high mintage.Only 804,465 1999 silver proofs were made. but 688,744,000 Connecticut coins were struck at the Philidelphia mint.

If you are collecting the quarters from the public supply, then they are worth exactly $0.25 each and not a penny more. If you have all Proof quarters, you can get more for them, but even those will only be worth what the buyer feels he should offer, depending on how bad he wants them. As far as becoming rare collectibles, you may want to try and get some of the mis-strikes to save. And even those are somewhat common.

I don't think they will go for very much more than what the amount is for all the quarters x .25 cents. There are too many collectors. Maybe more 100 years from now, and only if they are in mint condition, never circulated through the public hands, and you collected the "D"s and "P" mints.

Probably not, only because they were mass produced and introduced into the general market rather than a limited edition type introduction. I keep them, too. I buy the proof sets from the mint rather than keep the circulated ones. I am doing it just for me because I doubt if they will ever be worth more than 25 cents just because there are so many of them out there.

Hold on to them if they are uncirculated P, D, and S from the mint, they will be worth something later. If circulated they will only be worth 25 cents each.
Even if they make lots of them, not many will be uncirculated.
Hope this helps

I'm afraid you have quite a wait, pal. Most of the coins that I have didn't start escalating in value until 50-60 years after the year they were minted.

Probably not, unless you collected proof sets, and even then I wouldn't expect them to increase that much in value. The coins aren't scarce enough to be worth more than face value.
