My odd non-numismatic collection is of radio station coffee mugs. Over 200 of them. I'm running out of room. Help me find the RSCM Anonymous group for my area, won't you?

Mine is anything older than me, So if it was made in 1960 or earlier chances are I'll collect it. I was born in 61 so that year doesn't count. I have glass telephone pole insulators, brown Clorox bottles, keys, door locks green and blue glass mason jars, ink wells, irons, scales, coffee cans, and list goes on. My bed room furniture was made in 1876 in Westminster Pa. I just love old stuff.

I love Coins. I still have my 1960's era whitman folders.
I am also a tool hound. In earlier days I have worked in machine shops, auto repair, steel erection, Building commercial & residential.
Suffice to say I have kept them all.
I also have an extensive USA stamp collection that pretty much ends circa 1990.

Beer cans and hats from all over the world. I collect them on my travels and my younger brother puts them in his basement. I probably have over 200. All empty of course.

My "odd" collection is silver Swiss 1/2 Francs, certified MS-65 or better by PCGS or NGC. I have no reason for collecting these, I don't collect any other Swiss coins, or small silver coins, or focus my efforts on 20th century coins in gem condition. For some reason or reasons unknown, however, these tiny Swiss gems appeal to me.   |

I will stress "odd" and "little". First, I have a small collection of lapel pins from my childhood and youth. I do not plan on expanding on it, but neither I will dispose of it - it holds some sentimental and nostalgic value. Another odd little set I have is the following. It happened around the time when I decided to concentrate (numismatically) on QE2 and her family. I just saw these stamps issued by some obscure French-speaking (mostly) African countries and compulsively bought them. I'm still on the fence about what to do with them.    |
