Have any collectors here?

I'm sure most collect at least something, big or small, may not even know it. But for the ones that do, what do you collect and why do you collect it?

I'm into political memorabilia, big button collector, also DNC tickets/passes. Also like Nazi coins/paper money, collect a few other militaria things also. Have a couple small pieces of the Berlin Wall and a tiny piece of coal from the Titanic - all with several C.O.A. I juust love history and politics, so I'm constantly looking for stuff.

I try to collect time but it's always getting away from me.

I like collecting coins from other countries. Dang the Ecuadorian nickel is a spitting image to ours almost in size, but the weight is lighter, and of course a different political figure. Vending machines still won't take it, and thats the only reason I knew I had one.

Have collected sports cards since I was a kid, collected some Star Wars action figures back in the 90s (shouldn't have done that), and have old postcards with actual pictures from Gate City and Kingsport that I remember from my childhood. Seems like most hobbies are expensive, especially the ballcards and the old postcards, and I've had to cut back recently.

For 30 some years now I have been collecting mustangs. Not the horse, but rather the car. During that time I have only sold one of them but I keep buying them.
