Anyone here collect things ?  I like to collect a bunch of stuff like coins, books, guns, swords, etc.  Love historical coins and my oldest one is probably a Julius Ceasar denarius from way back :P.

i did stuff like that for years then realized i had a house full of dust gathering crap.

i have been on a minimalist kick for the last decade. 

if it's not something to  eat or use on a daily basis i just don't bring it in the house anymore.

I have a bunch of silver coins (mostly American coins as well "illegal" Syrian coins and some Ottoman coins). old paper money (mostly from the 60s through 80s; and a $10 silver certificate dating back from the 1930s), and a good amount of foreign coins such as Francs, Euros, Armenian, Soviet, and etc.

Nice, my collection probably isn't as big as yours. I have quite a few ancient Romans though. Have some old Nazi coins too which are quite interesting. Also many american silvers from mid to late 1900s.

I started collecting old military surplus weapons. Especially rifles, old ones. So far the oldest I have is from 1914. I want some civil war era rifles/muskets. That would be great.

Most are coppers or bronze but I do have two silvers. Would love to have a golden aureus.

I used to have some nazi memorabilia and even used to have a document signed by General Walther von Brauchitsch who was executed for war crimes in 1948, also had a Walter PPK that was taken off a captured German soldier during the battle of the bulge but I sold the whole lot to my dads mate who is an absolute fanatic of Nazi war items and he had far more stuff than I ever had, in fact I had like 5% of the stuff he had and my stuff was filling a whole room. His house got raided a few years ago by the police and he had 23 unauthorised firearms that weren't deactivated and I think it caused a massive investigation that spread all the way to Switzerland for illegal gun trading.

I collect video games.  Here's my current set up.

The early pictures aren't really consolidated because they are the most recent purchases I've made.

^damn, that's a pretty impressive collection.

as for myself, i collect comics and books. haven't got too much bc of financial restrictions, but i hope to keep expanding my stock so that one day i can share my collection with my loved ones--specifically, my future wife and children.

i think that's the best part of collecting something--sharing it with others.

Sweet game collection, arkephonic.  I could have an awesome game collection too but as a kid I got in the habit of selling off my games as I beat them :(.  Still have a lot of NES and N64 games though :P.

nooblet69

Thanks.  When Gamestop came around, I literally sold every single thing I had.  All my NES, SNES, Genesis, 64, Saturn, PS1, Gamecube, Xbox, PS2, Game Boy/Advance/DS, PSP stuff, just gone.  Hundreds of games, many different consoles.  It wasn't until a few years ago when I stopped selling, but I used to be the same way, after I played it, I'd get rid of it.  Sometimes I wouldn't even play or finish the game being sold.  A big reason that I started collecting was I told myself I'd never sell games away again because I realized how badly I was getting screwed in the deal (particularly with Gamestop, I know Ebay and Craigslist are good options).  I wish I had all that old stuff back, but gotta learn from mistakes eventually.

thats pretty insane collection you got there bud....

k2theswiss

Thanks.  It looks like a power strip but it's actually a ****** surge protector.  I live up on a mountain where weather can get pretty intense, so everything I own that plugs into an outlet goes through a surge protector.
