They really aren't. When a coin first comes out in the year, there is a rush for collectors to buy them for their collection or as birthday/Christmas gifts for people. Because of this, generally the current year is "worth" more than the previous year because most of the coin collectors have already gotten the previous year's coins but might not have the current year's coins. It is a temporary increase and when the 2012 coins start coming out, the 2011 coins will not be worth a premium any more.

Is a pound of Pennies worth more than a kilogram of pennies?
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! You see, even though a pound of pennies and a kilogram of pennies may sound different, they actually weigh the same amount. The only difference is that a kilogram is a metric measurement while a pound is an imperial measurement. So, whether you have a pound or a kilogram of pennies, they are both worth the same amount - filled with endless possibilities and potential for creating something beautiful.
How do you make a dollar with 21 coins without using pennies?
I'd say you can't. If all the coins are the smallest possible without pennies, they must all be nickels, and 21 of them make $1.05 . So in order for 21 coins to be not more than $1.00, there must be some pennies.
A student had a 100 coins total 7.00 He had no nickels what coins did he have if 60 percent of coins are of one kind?
it would have to be pennies, 60 quarters is more than $7, same with dimes so pennies is the only one left.
