    This is just mean and funny, but more funny than mean... Whocares though!

    I actually have a substantial ​wallet collection that I've acquired from various INGO members. I have a purse collection too, but really, whocares about that?

    Ah, the zinc plated 1943 cents. Keep the cents 1982 and before, the copper in them is worth about 2¢ melt. I think nickels are still worth 7¢. I have a big pile of "junk silver" dimes, not of collectible value, but just for denominated silver. Dimes, quarters etc 1964 and before are 90% silver. I always loved the Mercury dimes anyway, but they're worth some money now. In my collecting, I found a 1916D that's worth hundreds of dollars even in the run-over-by-traffic condition it's in. A mint uncirculated would be about $30000.

    Vintage pocket watches, especially those from companies beginning with "H" - Hampden, Hamilton, Howard. I also repair them.
    Pics of just a few of them:

    I have a bunch of Firefighter memorabilia in my living room, but since I left the department I've not bought anything else. Other than that, I have a whole bunch of electronic components. If I bought a few more soldering stations I could keep a makerspace open for a couple months probably lol

    Books, scount memoribilia, baseball cards, coins, and every once in a great while toby mugs. Coins inherited the interested from my Dad, and it does not hurt that I work retail. Was in scouting for a number of years. Always been a baseball fan, and I used to get Toby character mugs for my Uncle, and I started keeping the ones I really liked, only have 6 so far....

    ... Sorry about the slow response, my wallet came up missing and even with all the searching I've been doing I can't find it. I thought I lost it, but maybe someone took it!?


    Have you been around any 5 year olds? I hear they steal things.

    Did you happen to find a note? I think I would wait a little bit, do not call the police.....

    I collect totally random & unrelated objects. I put everything that catches my fancy in this big box I call a "junk drawer". Also put stuff in there I don't know what to do with but don't want to toss out. Mostly it annoys the wife, and it makes me giggle.
