Top 10 Best Things to Collect
The best and most interesting things that you collect.
Coin Collecting is profitable and fun to earn a profit there are plenty of coin shows or coin auctions around the world. There are also special organizations just in the U.S. such as PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service), ANA, PCS, ANC, NGC, and much more. I even made a website and started an organization the NC (Nation's Capital Coin Club) and want to start a grading service.
Numismatics is a hobby that deals with the collecting, studying, and making coins, paper money, and medals.
It is a hobby that has became a classic pastime of people of all ages. Currently, The ANA and spruce crafts have been very successful, and numismatics will always remain a very rewarding (and profitable :) ) hobby.
If you just collect the coins you get as a change you'll never lose money.
Because you can always respend them at stores.
Also there is also a large variation of Coins.
And another thing.
There are many other people who collect them.
Quarters. 2 per state, from the Philadelphia and the Denver mints! There are also new "America the Beautiful" quarters being released each year. You can collect new quarters or old quarters!
My father and mother started collecting in 1985 and since then have all first pressings of CD"s. These include neiva a never mind first press, Pink Floyd meddle (gold CD), Pink Floyd wish you were here, U2 achtung baby bootleg and hundreds more. Nowhere near as fun as collecting records though.
I have like 3000 cd's in my collection ( I collect also vynils ) and it's all sixties music ( mostly mid-sixties garage bands, freakbeat, modbeat... ). The only problem with that kind of collection is that my bank account is most of the times at almost zero every last of the month but without it my life would feel empty.
I have a music room with record albums as wallpaper. I have about 4,000 cd's right now. Everything from the 40's to today in every category. I also make my own cd's for other people. Music just makes life better.
I love my record collection, and my Celtics basketball card collection but CDs are my favorite thing to collect.
I collect Mario stuff! I have a poster on my wall, and then all of my prized figures, like Toad (whose arm fell off), Mario (One of them is mario flying like he does in super Mario Galexy), Yoshi, and luigi. I also have a bunch of mini figures!
I love playing video games and I love collecting them. I collect for Nintendo, Super Nintendo, N64, Genesis, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn, Sega CD, PS1, PS2, PS3, GameCube, DS, PSP, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii and even some of the rarer systems like PC engine and 3DO.
I love collecting video games. Might not have a big collection, but The legend of Zelda is amazing
I'm collecting RPG-Genre game such as Final Fantasy (I-XV), Call of Duty, Devil May Cry, etc. Same goes as Sims (1-4 and 2 Castaway).
Diverse works of literature that span cultures, places, and generations. Everything resides in the pages of a book: adventure, drama, comedy, satire, current events, history, fantasy, parallel universes, allusions to global world, pop culture, facts, information, entertainment, educational ideas, romance, instruction, guidance, and most importantly imagination. No price tag can be attached to that. Above all, if you are an avid, die-hard collector, (you may need some serious funds) first editions can yield some serious cash. Although, for true bibliophiles, this would prove a difficult proposition.
Books are simply priceless.
Books are magical things, by reading you build your vocabulary and you increase your imagination. Books can change you bad mood to a great mood. I encourage everyone in the world to read and to never stop completely because you will not know what your missing out.
When we collect and annotate our personal libraries, we continue to find new ways to look at old problems through reading, re-reading, and conquering our greatest territories: Mind and Imagination.
The joy of having your own library at home is a magical experience.. No matter how many books you have, be it 10 or a million.. Its worth every penny and every moment.
Much like novels, film provides us a mirror into so many different worlds and gifts viewers possessing diverse taste; there's literally something for everyone: romance, adventure, action, comedy, drama, fantasy, music, and so on so forth.
Whether you are a film elitist who strives to amass all Oscar-worthy opuses or an entertainment lover who gravitates to one or more specific genres, these are treasures to enjoy and share with the whole family, passing them on to the next generation much like a priceless heirloom. And with the advent of digital streaming and videos, clutter does not have to present the problem it previously did. The same can be applied to other media such as novels as well.
Film and novels-- simply a win-win in terms of collecting and can be personalized to specific tastes or moods! "
I collect stuffed animals and they are really fun to play with. I play a game with them. I pretend my stuffed animals are in a kingdom and Bad things happen that they have to fix. It's really fun. Make sure to collect stuffed animals. And my favorite one is my Lego man stuffed animal. I also have a panda Pillow Pet and road runner. I have 39 stuffed animals. I like the Webkins brand of stuffed animals.
I am 26 years old and ever since I was a kid I wanted to be a directer. I collected tons of movies with directors commentary to understand how movies are made. Now I'm working on my first movie!
Jk I'm 10 and want to be a director! I'm just starting my collection
Even you now that stuffed animals are not a choice I still think people should collect stuffed animals cause they keep me company and there fun to pretend they are real and talk to them. I have 25 stuffed animals.
I have recently started collected rocks, gemstones and crystals. At the moment I am finding it really fun, there is just so much to collect. I like collecting things you don't see everywhere so when you do see it there is always a sense of relief and excitement.
Every time I take a walk at a place where there are a bunch of rocks, I usually look on the ground for any rocks that look good or unique to had to my collection.
I have studded rocks from the age of about 2 yet I never. Really relised. It un till I. Started secondary school as I became. Bulled but I. Just can't help my self
I have only just started collecting rocks and I bought myself a polishing machine, SO WORTH IT!
The best thing to show you are better than someone else. Also, you can show you are intelligent, but the best thing about it is that you can remember your techniques that you used to achieve does goals. You could make a wall in your room or in the library full of these awards.
Go get off of your but and make something of yourself. Maybe if you got up you could get some awards and collect those.
I agree! I love collecting Awards!
I love collecting awards!
Wow collecting stamps are awesome! I have stamps from over 20 different countries
I even have one from a country that doesn't excist anymore!
Stamps are highly collectible.. My current collection stands at 435 different stamps from all over the world.
I've just started collecting mail stamps and I am already learning! There are so many different kinds!
I Love to collect Stamps. Stamps have my favorite pictures on them.
Art is such a wonderful way to decorate your home and gives limitless enjoyment to owners. It may also be considered an investment and tied to profit if you wish. I happen to collect Sandra Kuck and Thomas Kinkade art, and these are pieces I truly treasure and will never part with, not for amount of money.
I love art! You could collect famous paintings and art work also you do some of your own art work and look back at it in a couple of years x
Art collection is amazing! You can have such amazing stuff!
I can't believe you spelled "here" wrong.
Heirlooms that may be passed from generation to generation, priceless in value yet a solid investment, amazing conversation pieces and doorways to explore history and culture on a deeper level if you dare or desire, and depending on the type of antique which may include but not be limited to paintings, jewelry, desks, rocking chairs, clothing, appliances, flatware, china, Porcelain figurines, lamps, etc... they can beautify your living space or home.
Older things are always fun to look and and appreciate. The craftsmanship and detail that was put in to them is amazing and should be remembered.
As a lover of everything vintage.. Collecting antiques are an addiction to me.
I love pyrography it is beautiful and from the 1900s. The best part is that it is not to expensive!
Marbles. The only things even more versatile are cards, dice, and dominoes when it comes to the sheer amount of things you can do with these.
Marbles are really fun and interesting to collect because there are loads of different styles too, I have collected marbles over many years as well. You can find them anywhere!
There were several factories in West Virginia that made crafted marbles and they are no longer in business, so they're great to collect.
But I lost my marbles a long time ago!
Trading cards like Magic the Gathering make for excellent collecting. The art in the cards are now considered a kind of folk art. Also, they are incredibly easy to store because they are nearly the same size as a baseball card so you won't we wanting for ways to store them. Like baseball cards, they can range in price from a few cents to the low thousands.
I love Pokemon trading cards and I have collected each and every Pokemon card and they are all in perfect condition.
I am the worlds most number one Pokemon fan and I have probably collected, with my brothers help, over a thousand!
I think collecting trading cards are awesome, remembering some memorial from athlete that I love.
I think collecting cards is awesome! They are so cheap and you can get big folders to keep them in! I think moshi top trumps and binweevil cards are the best!
Practical for entertaining, and like someone said early, some decks are more than worthy of being called art.
You must own all of the Coca-Cola cards if you wish to be cool.
I just started collecting card decks if you would like to start I would recommended theory 11 decks or bicycle decks, collecting decks is also really fun
I have a box full of keychains, and my mum basically wants to kill me because I spend so much on them.
I love to collect keychains because I can remember were I went to get them and yhey are little soveners to put on my backpack.!
You can find key chains everywhere!
Keychains are fun to collect they come in many shapes and sizes and they have different designs
As long as you can pay the vet bills when it comes to it, I have no problem with that.
Please don't collect animals you will be on the next episode of hoarders.
Isn't kinda odd to be collecting animals? I mean when you say it that way.
Animals are AWESOME I currently have six-no not including fish. guinea pigs rats and dog
That is a great idea!. I am going to do it!
Classic collector's items.
You stole my idea
I love beanie babies I started when I was 8 and now I'm 22 and I still love them to this day
I'm collecting Perfumes too! Same goes with CDs and Video Games and Dolls...
If you didn't take a shower the night before perfume is always a good way to smell good, and you can were perfume that matches the holiday
Especially the bottles
Even I collect perfume for there bottles and also there smell is awesome
This is a cheap hobby that will last a lifetime. These model cars are fun to play with, cheap and really quite cool to look at. They are just like their life sized counterparts, they just are smaller and don't run.
A collectible the average Joe can actually afford, since most Hot Wheels sell for $1-5, with 1 being the normal price. Perfect.
I collected Hot Wheels when I was a pint, too.
I think this should be higher on the list.
Guitars are too much money. How in the heck are you supposed to get a lot of guitars?
Signed guitars would be cool to collect!
I might start this soon
Great to collect!
I always thought dolls were cool! When I was a little boy I had them, and then got rid of them when I was called names, but now I started collecting again!
Dolls just bring happiness to little girls and big girls because they understand you when your sad cause there always there for you.
When I was a little girl I loved them...But now I think they are creepy
For whoever said that it makes girls happy:
?
Old military ww2 silver age comics are thru the roof. Price golden age comics on ebay. Golden and silver age comics will never lose value because there are less and less in quality condition available year after year. Preserve your paper people!
Comic books are the greatest things ever! You get to go to a whole nother world and you get to see action adventure and excitement! Plus they'd be worth a ton in a few years.
Comic books are awesome and they are valuable too especially those golden age ones! But even if you don't read old ones you can still get reprints.
Can be expensive, but you get great stories and if you take care of your collection they gain value over time.
Dvds are not only fun to collect, but really fun to watch.
I think this would be awesome to collect because they always make me happy I'm looking for a fun hobby definitely giving this a try!
I always put a sticker over the flap of cards when I mail them!
Stickers come in all different shapes, sizes, colors, and themes. They are a very fun thing that kids or anyone can collect. Stickers can also be a wonderful thing to collect because they are easy to find. So basically they can be found at family dollar, schools can award your child with them?! And etc. So yea! ���"
Great Idea! It would be fun to have stickers around!
If this hobby was a bit less expensive it would probably be at the very top of my list. Because of the fact that most cars that are even worth collecting will run you twenty to thirty grand, it isn't very practical unless you are a millionaire. If you are, more power to you and I hope maybe one day I can get my hands on your collection.
Cars are an amazing link to our past and a form of art as well. Many cars show the artistic quality of the maker and can really say lot about the person who owns it. Even if you don't have the money to collect life sized cars, there is always the possibility to collect model cars. This hobby is both rewarding and cheap
My bro used to collect them and we played together! The good ol days!
Yeah! it's cool since after a certain period you can't even see it! later realisation is waste# so collect...srrry preserve antique automobiles! I currently just have a 1996 Hero Honda Splendor(bike)#
Hats are awesome
