If you’re a collector of valuable items, whether it’s gold and silver coin investments or other precious metals from birch gold coins, American Hartford gold, Newmont Mining Corporation, or Coeur Mining, NFL jerseys, or a stamp collection, you know just how much money is in the hobby. If you get your hands on a valuable collectors item, depending on what it is, you may have struck gold! Regardless of if you’re an experienced collector or are just starting out, you’ll want to know about these collectibles that actually go up in value:

1. Rare vinyls
While vinyls were on the decline for some years after their prime, they are back on the rise! First editions of classic albums or singles that are in mint condition can make you a few hundred or even a few thousand dollars. So, if you have any records still in their plastic seal somewhere tucked away, take them to an expert to see their value.

2. Sneakers
Currently, vintage sneakers can be sold for huge profit, like the classic Nike Air Jordans.  As for modern sneakers, pairs like sneakers designed by celebrities are huge collectibles and have a high value. Whatever they’re worth now, their value will only increase with time to come—so maybe hold onto those Yeezy sneakers for another decade or two.

3. Pokémon cards
Similar to sports cards, Pokémon trading cards, first introduced in 1998, can be worth a fortune if you have the right one. For example, one of the highest selling cards is the Illustrator CoroCoro Comics Promo released in 1998 and sold for $6,000,000. While that card is incredibly rare, cards like the 2003 Crystal Charizard Holo Skyridge can sell for $25,100. So if you happened to keep some cards, don’t throw them away—they may be worth something.

4. Jewelry
Good quality jewelry made of materials that hold their value over time, like gold or diamonds, can be a common investment. Watches are a popular jewelry collectible; for example, the Patek Philippe watches are part of rare collections and many athletes and celebrities wear them worldwide. If you have rare, good quality jewelry, you may choose to save it as a family heirloom to pass down to generations. If you have rare jewelry, it should be properly stored in a safe.

5. Classic cars
While this collectible may not be in everyone’s price range, there is no denying the value in classic and vintage cars—some have sold for as much as $18,000,000. Once you have one, they are expensive to own as they require a lot of maintenance and upkeep, and you likely won’t drive it much.

6. Dolls, toys, and figurines
Turns out dolls, toys, and figurines aren’t just for kids! Vintage dolls and toys are often collected as they are a steady market that are sure to increase in value, if you have the right ones. For example, certain kinds of Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, G.I. Joe’s, Barbie’s, and StarWars action figures can be worth a significant amount of money. If you have kept any of these things from your childhood, do some research and see if you have a valuable item.
