Related hobbies? What else do you hunt for??

I collect just about everything. If another depression hit I would be taken care of. My family always jokes about my collecting. Whenever someone is having a garage sale they call me first to help them check prices and to see what I want.
Some of my hobbies include:
Metal Detecting
Coin Collecting
Rocks/Minerals
Arrowheads
Real Estate
Construction
Taxidermy--My latest hobby

There are many more but I can't think of the correct terminology for them. Maybe I should be called a junk collector.
 

I look for glass fishing floats here in Okinawa when I beach hunt. I have found one so far.
I also dig all iron targets here hoping for a tsuba (cross-guard from a samurai sword). That would be my ultimate find while I am here I think.
Coins of course, I have been doing that since I was about 10.
I also collect military challenge coins of places we have been stationed.
I used to collect stamps, but so far there isn't a "Stamp Detector", so I gave it up ;)

I find that Geocaching (another obsession) leads me to more great potential Metal Detecting sites than hours of Internet research. Some cache hiders find the most serene, tricky, and out of the way spots, which often are areas that were once utilized, but then forgotten, making them unexplored MD territory.
