Very new and very part time to collecting coins. My son and I are trying to collect rolls of Presidential coins. When it came time to purchase the Wilson rolls, the price of 75.00 - 99.00 seems a little excessive for what is basically a 25.00 value. I am searching for what the reason is for the difference in the Wilson's since even the newer rolls are in the 33.00 range.

Thanks in advance for making me smarter.

Here is why:
Even with production significantly curtailed from earlier levels, stockpiles of excess dollar coins began to build within Treasury vaults. The situation came to a head at the end of 2011 when the Treasury Department announced the decision to suspend production of the series for circulation.

From 2012 onwards, the Presidential dollars have not been struck for circulation and only produced in the limited numbers necessary to fulfill demand from collectors. These coins were only available within numismatic bags and rolls offered by the US mint at a premium to face value. Accordingly, mintage levels for this portion of the series are significantly lower.

Wilson is also the lowest Mintage

and as Warcoinguy explained so eloquently the lower mintage is the factor in the price.
Enjoy your new hobby!
