I also collect antique firearms, albeit a small collection, primary 19th century US military weapons. Without intending it, I also seem to collect HF ham radios. In the same ham radio category, I also collect QSL (proof of contact) cards of which I have over 3K; these are not a salable nor tradable item. I used to have the world's largest collection of empty Bic pens, but I gave that up due to the small market.

I collected many things through the years and coins are the only thing that has panned out for me. Everything else was all hype or no dealers in this area. Finally used my stamp collection for postage and after doing a little trading with some of you other forum members I see you are using your stamp collection for postage as well. I will stick with precious metals and world wide coin collecting till the day I die!

I collect militaria, mostly ww2, with ALMOST as much passion as coin collecting. I also collect random antiques.

Me too. I keep them in my head.  I also collect seashells. I keep them on the beaches around the world. Perhaps you've seen some of my shells.

If I could afford a second expensive hobby, it would be books.

My book collection isn't really expensive, but it reflects my interests: Red Book, 44 books, missing 12 editions. National Geograpic Books: 27 editions. Time-Life Sets: World War II, Photography, Mysteries of the Unknown, The Old West. Story of Civilization by Will Durant. World Book Encyclopedia, and every hard-bound supplement since 1962. And, a bunch more. When I go to "my rewatd," our kids, or our library will have a ton of books!
