    I also collect baseball cards, stamps and bobbleheads. I also am always looking for fossils. I love history so I am prone to saving anything old.

    I collect bayonets and old hatchets/axe heads. Some older axe heads can be worth a pretty penny... or cent!

    vlaha Respect. The. Hat.

    Interesting fact: the Russian bayonets fitted to the Mosin-Nagant rifles could be used as screw drivers(could, I'm not saying they did).

    Coincidentally, most, if not all, the screws on the said rifle were standard.

    I collect rocks from various places I've visited (and from a few places I've never been). This weekend, I gave a fellow CoinTalk member a piece of Ulexite from Boron California. This stone has been cut flat on the top & bottom. This stone passes the visual image from one side of the rock onto the other side of the rock much like a coherent bundle of fiber optic cables.

    I collect fossils, meteorites (I plan on doing a meteorite hunt as a school project), and other geologic specimens in addition to coins.

    Here are a few pieces from my collection. This is by no means my whole collection...I've got a shelf-full of fossils and meteorites. But from left to right:
