I'll bet we have enough 'collections' here to open our own auction house. Boy, would I ever like to get rid of about half the stuff in the house. What was I thinking???

As of last night, I inherited my grandmothers collection of old paper money, both US and International. She wants me to research the value and put it up for auction. Egads... where do I start?

Got any websites like that for valuing old coins? My great uncle saved quite a few, and My Mom's been asking me to find out their value.

I collect Santas. Started out as just wanting to have a nice, small collection. WAY out of hand, but not giving them up. Uh-uh, even when my kids and hubby roll their eyes at me every Christmas (when they make their appearance).

Mocha have you seen the little ceramic shoes that are actually cell phone holders? I saw them at Hallmark.

Penguins, tea pots, comic buttons, magnets from places I've been. Nothing I have is elaborate or very expensive, and I only started collecting things a few years ago. I don't like clutter either. My collections should have been minature objects! My 4 yr old grandson also collects rocks and has for a long time. He loves their shapes, colors, textures, and uniqueness. He found some crystallized geodes in his back yard. ( I love that these rock collecting children are observant of their surroundings.)

I have a fairly decent collection of porcelain dolls-about 30. Most of them are fairy tale dolls. My grandmother gave them to me for christmas and birthdays and any other special occasion.I have no idea what they are worth or even how to look up their worth. I do have most of their boxes, but they have all pretty much just been on display in our house for the past 10 years or so....to tell you the truth I never wanted them and still don't care for them, but I love my grandmother to pieces so I kept them....
