Your Most Valuable Collection?

Alright I've noticed that a lot of people here collect many different things, here is a thread that applies to all types of collections.

"What is your most valuable collection?"

As for me my most valuable collection by far would be my coins

I have many different collections of coins but together they make a whole.



What is your most valuable collection?



"Ohh! OOOhhh!!!-Oh and again! I made it. I know it. I can't see it but I know I made it. Oh my God I made it. Alright, don't give up. This is for everything. This is when I don't have to do it. This one right here is when I don't have to do it, which leaves nothing else but the one. No I don't think so. Not there. God I wish I could turn the volume-OH **** Aahhh son of a **** I talk too much. ****." - 00vega -

tough one, one of my most emotionally valuable items is a Ruger MKII Pistol that was owned by my grandpa. Theres not an item in my current possession that I cherish more than that.

Other really notable stuff would be my collection of Signed McFarlane NHL figures. I've got a few spanning from Yzerman to Ovechkin.

As far as money is concerned though I've got a binder full of nhl rookie cards that include the likes of Patrick Roy, Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito, Steve Yzerman, Mike Modano, and tons of other Hall of Fame and current players. Theres no telling how much I could get for them if I were to put them up for sale.

I would have to say my comic book collection..Over 220,000 and counting.
If I tried to put a value on the whole collection it would be somewhere around 2.1 million or so.
I have it insure for 5 million but hope I never see the day I have to cash that policy in.

Yep.
 
I have a trumpet collection. If you add up my trumpets and all the accesories it comes to...5.5k

There was a quote here, but the the person who SAID the quote and pretty much ASKED for it to be placed in my sig asked for it to be removed.

****ing ass...

I have uh... 2 trumpets probably worth about $600 total with all of the accessories and everything.
Of course my brother accidentally crushed one of them (stepped on it) so the value of the 2 added up would be more but... yeah. I actually only have 1 trumpet that is in working condition.
