Are your old coins and bills valuable? Expert explains what to look for

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 15:00:00 GMT

(NEXSTAR) - You may have a collection of state quarters you've been working on for years, or a stash of $2 bills you hope have some worth. But when it comes to our currency, are there really any that are worth more than they were meant to be?If you're a currency collector, you know the answer already: yes, there are some dollars and coins that carry a higher value than the U.S. Mint printed on them originally. Pennies adorned with wheat, for example, could be as worth as much as $1,500 if the date next to President Abraham Lincoln's head is just right. Sometimes called a 'wheatie,' those that were never circulated could be worth twice as much. But how can you tell if your penny, quarter, or $2 bill is worth more than $2.26? $2, or more? How rarely seen bills could be worth beyond their printed value "The answer is not always obvious," Dustin Johnson, Vice President of Numismatics (the study or collection of coins, paper money, and medals) at Heritage Auctions tells Nexstar.

That also means that hotels are becoming even more expensive. Hotels.com said the average room rate within the city during the festival is hovering at around $315 per night. However, if you'd like to stay close to the action, you can expect to pay a hefty premium. The company says hotels in downtown Austin are charging between $500 and $1,000 per night, with some going for even more. "It gets a little less expensive as you move out," said Expedia Group Spokesperson Melanie Fish. "But starting last week, some people I think started canceling their reservations, and all of a sudden there was a little bit of availability. The Driscoll for $400 a night. The Aloft Hotel for around $350. So if you hit it just right, you can still find downtown places to stay."If you're hoping to fly in just for...
