I know most of this section is about stocks, bonds, gold and silver... but I like to buy certain antique/eclectic things... for example

Besides graded gold and silver coins, I like:

1) Montegrappa 1912 Symphony Fountain Pens
2) Old Katana Swords
3) WWI/WWII German Daggers from Solingen Germany
4) Anything 19th Century Copper
5) Antique Gambling equipment
6) Limited edition Beer Steins (just scored the Budweiser 4 set Lighthouse series)
7) Rare minerals/crystals
8) Some stamps

I consider these things more of a hobby than an investment. For example, I know there are better pens than Montegrappa, but I focus my research on one area and scan the market based on what I can spend.

Anyone else collect stuff?
