[classichasclass]

I've got a decent coin collection going, and a few legitimately noteworthy pieces like ancient coinage and what I call my conflict diamonds (South Vietnam, Japanese occupation currency, Somali coins, etc.), but I think it's ending up a lot like stamps. Except for the very high end museum quality collections, little of most personal collections is worth very much (except in currency its face or bullion value), and I do it purely for the historicity of the artifacts.
