JHE - My collections


Computers
Yes, I have a computer museum! Visit it online at its page.

Computer accessories & parts
I have motherboards, keyboards, mice, power supplies, cables, cards, FDDs, HDDs, CD-ROM drives, cases (sort-of), RAM, tapes, disks, cartridges, etc. ...

Barcodes
I used to collect barcodes. I was very interested in them. I have some interesting & rare ones, but most are of the standard EAN & UPC types (0 12345 67890 1 & 9 123456 789012). An interesting point is that I have read that barcodes are meant to be printed in only a limited range of foreground & background colours. However, I have plenty examples of 'non-compliant' barcodes, which or course, can be easily read by scanners!

Magazines
I have hundreds of 'em. I may document them one day.

Money
I collect foreign currency, like I suppose most people do, as a semi-curiosity.

But I also collect Australian 50c coins with a particular feature. These are the ones with the double bar behind the emu's head. I currently have about 80 of these. They don't really have any more than 50c value, well maybe to a collector. But to me they do. Also, if I had one in mint condition, then it'd probably be worth up to about $20! Click here for some details & pictures.

I also have a couple of 50c coins from 1966. These are 80% silver, 20% copper, and they are round. 1 is very clean and bright.

Other stuff
There are many other things, but when I think of them, then I'll document them here.
