    Yes, we collect all sorts of things don't we? I started with stamps and coins/banknotes as a kid. Later on Jack Daniels, which made lots of friends the world over that I'm still in contact with, Lego and now coins again and bullion.
    Where does it stop? 😅

    Had to share this with my daughter who loves pokémon (and who I've been trying to get into coins) :) Your silver stacking piece reminded me of a set I nearly bought - the 1oz chess crown set which I think was 8 one ounce pieces you could join together to form a crown. I love stuff like that, very imaginative :) Maybe a video on the most unusual and interesting "coins" or even, are there other "sets" like that which physically join together?

    oooohhhhh mannnnn...If I had my old binder.....I had EVERY first generation holo and American promo like the 3d pikachu. I even had many first editions holos.... I told my dad when I went to college to hold them as they could be worth something someday....ANNNNDDD there gone.... Probably at least 30k worth of stuff. Squrtle was my favorite because he wore sunglasses and was in a street gang (squrtle squad). In 7th grade, I wore sun glasses and thought I was in a street gang...so we are the same. Really cool video. Coins are more of my jam as you know. I am all about the world bullion. So many world stories to discover.

    Thats a good battle!!!! Hard winner for me! I collected Pokémon cards growing up and started collecting Pokémon cards again about 5 years ago. Im obsessed with both Pokémon cards and coin collecting!! Outff. I love both so much, the new releases and the excitement of opening blister packs and completing a set of Pokemon cards is soooo good! Same with getting a new release in numismatics etc. i love it! Im gonna say for me right now coins win. And then pokemon cards and then pokemon go!!!!! Oh and yughio cards and afl cards! Mmmm

    Will coins be tokenised? If so that will make collectors super rich. $propy , the tokenisation of real estate for example. We have to think outside the square bro.

    I have coins from 300 AD I do believe I brought them for a very fair price of $5 each from a place called Thompsons coins (you mite of heard of them a very reputable coin shop in Melbourne highly recommend 👍) I also em a very proud owner of a 1913 Commonwealth of Australia £1 banknote which is the latest and greatest addition to my coin and banknote collection I also collect vinyl records and skateboards which also have a interesting history in menny very cool ways eg all the really cool old classic records of Rock n roll, punk, metal ,ect also playing a big part in the creation of hip hop and dance music and skateboards are just damn cool being a way that surfers could surf when there was no waves made of a roller skate cut in half and nailed to a peace of timber 🪵🛼=🌊👍😎 old bottles are another interesting collectable with interesting history and old lighters and pocket watches is another with gold and silver makes with a vast history.
