Poll Question: Do you collect anything beyond the mainstream in numismatics? If so, what is it?

Yes, I unfortunately see I have a bad habit of accumulating anything that catches my eye. Started at 10 years old with coins, then graduated into old Bottles. Then one of my employees gave me a Hess truck for Christmas, now 39 trucks later, it's a collection. Purchased a liquor store and started a Whiskey collection of 125 fifths and 70 miniatures, and I don't even drink. Gave that one away to my nephew. Now, somehow, I started collecting baseball cards, something I said I would never do, but my son loves them. Unfortunately, time has caught up with me now; no more collecting, but maybe adding to what I started.

I collect Holed U.S. coins by date and mintmark, all denominations, from colonials to date.  Also, when I become impatient, I buy coins with loops, or plugged, as some coins are no longer holed or rarely available holed. 

I also have a few coin spoons, not holed.  Also, 1946 and 1947-dated world coins, not holed.

Why yes, I do! There was a bank in Canada that only existed between 1854-1857. The Zimmerman bank. The notes are awfully limited, of course. They had notes in the denominations of $1, $3, $5, $10, & $20. The higher bills much harder to find. I've never found one at a show, and they seem to only come up for auction a few times a year. It's a very interesting search, looking for a bank note that holds your name!

Challenge coins! You will be hearing much more from me and about them very soon!
