I too have some rare stuff... An Israeli $5 bill from the 60's; a German Pfennic from the 50's; and, the most impressive I think, a 1947 peseta from Francisco Franco's Spain. The inscription reads, "Francisco Franco Caudillo de España por la G[loria] de Dios."

I used to collect stamps, but not anymore.
I used to collect anything and everything, and I still do and is piled under my bed, on my dresser, in boxes, on the floor, and just about everywhere.
I kinda still collect turtle-ly things... They are all nice and on display... ^_^
I have lots of neat holy cards and pictures and things I have picked up from retreats... I am a sucker for free things... Which is bad. Very bad. Except for free food... in college, all free food is very good!

I have some extra dust, if you want me to send it to you. I think postage would be pretty inexpensive ...

If you're interested, I also have a hefty lint collection from my dryer.

Yep, same here. I have every movie ticket from every showing of the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring I ever saw in theaters....so that would be about 8 tickets. :blush: Not to mention the 5 for Two Towers and 3 for Return of the King. :cool:

I keep anything coffee-related. I used to have a huge lamp made from an old fashioned coffee grinder, but it was too big and too ugly for me to move. -_-

And then there's the Lord of the Rings memorabilia... :unsure:

I have a collection of porcelain dolls.

I used to have shell and rock collections, but they sort of dissipated. I have some of the rocks, though.

I collect old junk that used to be in my mom's house that is now in my garage... you know, stuff that might be worth something but isn't... stuff I can't part with because it's from my childhood-- like my 1970 Dr. Seuss lunchbox... all of my moon landing, Batman (with Adam West), etc discs for the View Master... like my silver Campbell Soup spoons... all that stuff that I don't want to get rid of, but I wish I didn't own.

One thing I do have that I really like-- my mom's childhood teaset and dishes. It's porcelain and is on a shelf on my wall.
