What do you like to collect? (lemmy.world)

Saw a post like this on Reddit once and I thought some of the responses were quite interesting.

I collect all sorts of stuff from vinyl records and vintage game consoles to Harley-Davidson dealer t-shirts.

I'm curious about what some of you guys collect, the weirder the better :D

I don't know why, but I keep damaged or other cool looking coins. Like if I find a bent quarter, chipped penny, or some other type of damage to coins I'll keep them. I have one quarter that's completely coated in bright red paint.

Retro games from almost all systems even though they're all in boxes. I plan on setting them up and never playing them eventually.

Various virtual collections, if those count? Pokemon. Any free games from Prime Gaming, Epic Games, etc. Lately, cute decor Pikmin in Pikmin Bloom. That's been keeping me out walking a lot and getting healthier, so that's a fun one.

My partner collects enamel pins (and gifts me ones she thinks I'll like, so I have a tiny collection of those from her). She also collects wood puzzles (like 3D models), those metal brain teaser puzzles, and dice.

I'm sure I'm missing a few others but that's all I can think of for now.
