anybody collect anything

Cars landcruisers. Guns old Colt & S&W Hand guns and Winchester rifles. Watches an Knives
and 2 Airplanes Cessna 310 and a Piper super cub.
 

I have collected coins, longer than anything else, and have pittifully few nice ones considering.
I recently started collecting autographs through the mail
I have collected sports cards since 1989 and I'm into the game used sports cards now
I collect stamps
I have a four leaf clover collection of around 125 that i found in about a 2 month period, and I still look every time I find a clover patch

those are the main things i collect, but, i don't collect "anything", i collect EVERYTHING!!
 

I collect lots of stuff! lol It seems angels and crosses, weapons, purple glass....ah who am I fooling, anything purple! lol I also have some coins collected.
 

Sports cards (racing, and baseball). I've also collected Racing Champions 1/64 and 1/24th scale die cast cars. Over the years I was an occasional collector of sharks teeth. I've gotten more into the shark tooth collecting lately, and especially since I'll be getting my new detector tomorrow; I'll now turn into a collector of civil war relics. South Carolina is rich in civil war relics. I'm just 2 or 3 miles from where the Battle of Honey Hill took place, and a mile from the Episcopal Church that was established in 1835. The present structure was built in 1859 and escaped destruction during the Civil War although most of town was burned, including the parsonage and church organ and some of its furniture. :)

Darth Vader items and Star Trek Stuff.

That's all I collect.

Oh yeah lots of metal junqe that I dig up all the time.
 

Vintage bubble gum/peanut machines.
Coins (for my little guy)
Relics found while hunting/ exploring abandoned buildings.
Vintage fishing lures/ hunting items
Just about anything old/unusual.

For many years i collected "general store" stuff, turned one room of our
house at the time, into a general store complete with period displays and
stock, most was sold/given away when we bought the new house.

I did keep a few of the more interesting pieces like the ledger and two scales,
i collect way to much, hate to see what happens should i finally get a MD. :wink:

(pic is the last remnants of the general store collection, sold last year)

i collect pez dispensers and hard rock cafe pins. :) :icon_queen:

I always look at the clearance items at wal*mart for stuff I can sell on ebay. There is a case of batman pez dispensers there right now. It's like 25 packages of 4 or 5 dispensers, all of the main characters. They are marked at 7 dollars at present, but I am waiting on the price to go down. If I can get them for 50 cents or a dollar a piece, I'll mail you a pack.

Hornet nests, strange roots & wood from the outdoors, Dug Relics, etc..............
