Why Collectors Sell Awards: A Breakdown of the Key Motives
The question of why collectors sell awards comes up quite often, as it's commonly believed that a collector is someone who buys. However, selling is an integral part of this hobby. This question was raised by a collector from Israel who was curious about why items, including valuable ones, leave collections.

The Price of Collectible Models: Truth, Lies, and Investment Value
For many scale model collectors, the cost of their hobby is a sensitive topic, especially in conversations with family. The real price of a model is often concealed, and a more modest, 'family-friendly' price is announced at home. This little trick has become almost a tradition in the collector community.

Investing in Soviet Billon Coins: Which Coins Are Worth Buying
The question of the advisability of investing in Soviet billon coins, both silver and non-precious metal ones, is quite relevant.

Die Crack: How a Minting Defect Affects a Coin's Value
A die crack is a type of mint error that has been known since ancient times, ever since humanity began minting coins. The reason for its occurrence is simple: no matter how durable the steel from which the die is made, it eventually wears out and cracks from the constant impacts and stresses during the minting process.

Investing in Amber: Should Collecting Be Considered an Investment?
Amber, the fossilized resin of ancient coniferous trees, has long ceased to be just a material for jewelry. Today, it is increasingly viewed as an alternative investment asset capable of diversifying a portfolio and protecting capital from inflation. Its value lies in a unique combination of qualities: it is both a gemstone and a paleontological artifact, preserving particles of the prehistoric world.

Types and Classification of Amber: From Baltic to Dominican

Inclusions in Amber: How to Assess the Value of Insects and Plants Frozen in Resin
Amber with inclusions provides a unique window into the prehistoric past. Inclusions are any organic or inorganic materials that were trapped in tree resin millions of years ago and became fossilized, surviving to this day. Most often, these are insects, arachnids, and plant fragments, but sometimes, truly unique finds are discovered.

Storing and Caring for an Amber Collection: Rules for Preserving its Value
Amber, being a fossilized tree resin, is a soft and fragile material. Its organic origin makes it vulnerable to environmental factors. Improper conditions can lead to a loss of shine, color change, the appearance of cracks, and even the complete destruction of the stone.

Amber Valuation: Factors Affecting the Price of Collectible Specimens
Amber, or 'the sun stone,' has been valued by collectors and jewelers for millennia. However, not all specimens are the same. Valuing amber is a complex process that depends on a combination of unique characteristics.
