do those state quarters count? i have most of the ones that have come out so far (maine and alabama are notable exceptions, and i can't find those anywhere for some reason . . . argh.) i also have some pretty weird coins, including multiple susan b. anthony dollars, multiple kennedy half-dollars, multiple wheat pennies, some of those 1943 pennies that weren't made of copper, various silver dollars dating as far back as the late 19th century, a couple buffalo nickels (the old ones, not the ones that have just come out recently), a mercury dime or two, and coins from canada, great britain (even halfpennies -- i understand they've been discontinued), greece, germany, france, spain, mexico, etc. (all prior to the era of the euro). i also have a box containing $25,000 in shredded currency.
and of course there's the obvious -- books, CDs, etc. i keep all my textbooks instead of selling them so i will have built up a sort of pseudo-academic "library" when i get older.
i think that's about it.
