An unopened 23 year-old bottle of Coke and Buffy. What do you collect? Support Apolyton

Actually it's a commemorative issue bottle re: the UGA 1980 1-A Football National Championship, still unopened with the original soda still in it.

The wife collects a bunch of Buffy memorabilia - my computer room could just as accurately be called the Buffy room.

I also used to collect baseball cards (I once spent $10 on a Ruben Sierra rookie card - but, hell, it was 1991-ish and he was considered one of the top prospects of the decade) and a few comic books (Elfquest, probably something nobody here has heard of).

How about you? What do you collect?

Martini glasses. Beautiful elegant things. I've got two so far because they have to be unique before I add them to my collection.

Dead curriences. I've got some pre-euro banknotes from around the EU and a few coins my mum gave me that were originally from an Italian city-state.

I don't think you can call my CD collection "collecting". I just buy a hell of a lot of music.

I'd love to have a collection of Anglo-Saxon coins, but they're pricey and I have other priorities in life.

I have a stamp collection I havent sorted out in 20 years. Nowadays I just rip them off the envelope and add them to the pile. They will not have any value until I'm retired anyway. I have one BIG rarity though, and that's a postcard that was shipped by Amundsen's "FRAM" through the polar cap in 1876 or something. I have put it inside a frame and hung it on the wall to show off.
