A lot harder to find collectibles.

@LittleBlueAngelBoy Not so, in the 60's I was collecting coins from the 1800's; silver dollars, halves, nickels and dimes. I even found a couple of half dimes. Baseball cards were easy to get and cheap and sell for a fortune now. There was a lot of old furniture that went for a song and the bikes from that era now sell for a premium. Collectibles today are hard to find and over priced compare to the 60's and earlier. My Mom collected gold coins during the 30's and 40'which were common then and worth a lot more today as gold was only $25 per ounce then.
