- These are not made by the government.
- These have no extra value.
- Whatever gold is plating is on the coin is too small to have value and cannot be removed.

Collecting is an opinion. You should collect what you like but there are collecting communities who set guidelines. For coins the main limit is that a coin is collectible if it is issued by a government and any changes made outside the mint is considered Post Mint Damage (PMD).
Here's the stats...

Can't say I'm surprised about this...back when state quarters first came out, there was so much hype about them, and some unscrupulous sellers tried to cash in on "special sets" that weren't really special at all.
The Mint is really dragging the "special quarters" thing out past the point where most people have taken notice, though (probably just to preserve people's jobs!). Numismatists, for the most part, have probably never bothered--we all know that minting numbers like 400,000,000 per edition don't lead to any value whatsoever. It's kinda sad that the biggest thing that got so many people to check out their change was nothing more than a marketing campaign for a "special" series that have no value because so many were produced.

According to most coin collectors the state quarter programs brought in new collectors to the hobby which began to decline. While continuing it keeps young collectors interested plus it is what most of the world mints do.
As for jobs the same amount of workers make coins regardless of design changes.
They were never minted for value, it is a commemorative honor.
