Collecting US state quarters is probably the most affordable hobby one can get into. Don't be fooled into thinking you need an expensive case to house your collection - all you need is the quarters themselves and a love of US history. The total cost to collect every state's design is 50 times 25 cents, a mere $12.50. But it gets better: When you remember that the collecting period is spread out over ten years, the cost works out to a "monthly payment" of about 10.4 cents per month. Ten cents per month! Depending on your electric rate, it would probably cost you more money than that just to run a single 100 watt lightbulb for a half an hour per day.
