The cost of the packs of cards that Mike bought can be calculated by adding up the value of the coins he used to pay for them.

1 quarter is worth 25 cents.

2 dimes are worth 2 * 10 cents = 20 cents.

4 nickels are worth 4 * 5 cents = 20 cents.

4 pennies are worth 4 cents.

So, the total value of the coins that Mike used to pay for the packs of cards is 25 + 20 + 20 + 4 = 69 cents.

Therefore, the cost of the packs of cards that Mike bought was 69 cents.
