Coin and Paper Money Collecting/Questions about 1970's coins

Question
I have what I'm sure must be some annoyingly overasked questions but hopefully you'll indulge my ignorance. Is there any value to any 1975 coin (nickel, dime, quarter)? Also were there any quarters minted in 1975? And finally is there any value to having the full collection of penny, nickel, dime and quarter from 1970 and if so what mint, condition, etc. would be required for such a set to have any value?

Answer
Hello David and yes there are many coins minted after 1970 are desirable but only in top uncirculated condition and proof sets issued by the mint for collectors.you can look around the Internet at many web sites which will explain fully with pics that will explain in detail about begriming a collection of modern coins
