Primarily gold coins, but I have gems, assorted shinies, and wondrous items thrown in there as well. Mostly I just sleep on top of it in my cave while my followers collect more for me.

I used to collect shiny coins. And I have a habit of keeping old antediluvian things which I should have disposed of a long time ago. So those kinda things just pile up in my room.

I collect polonium. One time I sold some to this guy who said he was going to give it to his friend Alex for his birthday.

Aww, come on now. That's a rather cruel joke.

Used to collect clocks, actually. Now they're all stopped, so basically I have like twenty clocks around my desk that all say different times.I have one that keeps ticking but never moves. It's kind of creepy actually.

I remember in year 5, Eraser shavings became a big deal for a little while. It was like how much of it you could collect in a day. The top of each desk was this abbrasive plastic and people would rub erasers against it and collect the shavings in cups or in their desks. It really was the funniest sort of fad/collection in school as unlike other fads such as football cards or little battery operated gaming things like tamigotchis, their really was no point to it. You couldn't trade it or play with it or really do anything lol.

In primary school I also collected Simpsons stuff briefly and Stamps when I was a bit younger. I also collected two dollar coins. I gathered about 70 of them at the peak of my collection before gradually spending them or trading them for notes because having so much change was an inconvenience. (Not that I carried the change around lol).

I have a fairly extensive collection of pint glasses, last time I counted I had around 60 different labels.
I also build scale models, but not so much as I'd like to anymore.

Now I collect rocks
I collect rocks
I put em in a bag
I put em in a box
Filling up my pockets
Filling up my socks
I gain weight every time I take a walk
I collect rocks
I collect rocks

Volcanic or sedimentary
How much more can I carry
I pick up every rock
That I find
To me a gravel road is a
Gold mine

I collect rocks
I collect rocks
I put em in a bag
I put em in a box
From a pebble to a boulder
I can't wait till I'm older
So when I take walks
I can carry more rocks

I collect rocks, I collect rocks.
I collect rocks, I collect rocks.

Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumbered here
While these visions did appear.

Cards. I have most of them because cards tend to wear out quickly if you get cheap ones, so I have a lot of poorly kept decks, one of which has dried blood on it. Don't ask.
