Message:: [QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1966236, member: 75105"]I know if you are probably thinking...huh? What? Credit Cards? Well, if you think about it..coin collecting is collecting money, and with it all things money. Paper money, elongated cents, etc. Some people also collect mint bags, piggy banks, paper stock certificates, even the books about coins. So it probably comes as a surprise to you, yes, there is a teeny tiny amount of people collecting credit cards... ..think about it, paper money is a form of payment, coins are a form of payment, and so are checks, and some people collect old checks. Since credit cards are money, technically speaking, I'm surprised it's never, or very rarely brought up. Yet people DO collect them, and rare credit cards, like the American Express Centurion Card, aka "the black card", can command prices of over 100 dollars, and some other private issue cards can command over thousand dollars. So if people are paying money, it does show there IS an interest in them. While I only have one credit card, a Citibank card that expired in the early 90s..it is kinda cool to hold and it think what kind of stuff this card could of bought. Old credit cards, theoretically speaking, can be kind of rare, most people toss or cut up the old one. So this leaves the question, does anyone on here collect them?[/QUOTE]
