How to define a set? What kind of things are collectible?

In fact, everyone's understanding of the definition of collection is different, because the different collection levels lead to differences in the quality of items in the collection. Some people think that something with high value is a collection, which has collection value, but others think that no matter what the value of a collection is, as long as it is old, it has collection value, which leads to different understandings of the definition of a collection. Xiao Jiu personally feels that whatever it is, as long as it has history and culture, it has collection value. This is Xiao Jiu's view.

Xiao Jiu believes that the definition of collection is:

First, the collection is to put away and hide?

In fact, everyone's understanding of collection is different. In the early days, Xiao Jiu also thought that the collection was to put away and hide, because it was explained by separating characters. I think this is also the definition of collection that most people think. Put it away and hide it is a collection! But in fact, this idea may still be misunderstood, because the meaning of collection is not only so simple literally, but also has a deeper meaning!

Second, collecting is not just hiding, but more importantly, understanding the history and culture behind it!

Xiao Jiu believes that the collection is to understand the history and culture behind this coin or this item. Each era has its own history and culture, and the culture of each era is different. Therefore, when collecting, we should also understand the history and culture behind it. This is the real purpose of our collection. It is necessary to understand the culture and history of predecessors, learn history and learn the culture of the ancients, especially some historical allusions. These are all good examples of teaching us to be human!

Only valuable things are collectible?

First, many people think that expensive things are collectible, but this is not the case!

No matter how high or low the collection is, the rich have rich ways to play, and those who have no money have poor ways to play, so it is not valuable things that are valuable to collect, and the collection does not care about the price. Many things in Xiao Jiu were bought for a few dollars, just like the expensive Kangxi and Bao Tong, each of which was only a few dollars, and now it has risen to dozens of dollars. Who can say it won't be hundreds in the future? Therefore, many things worth collecting are not necessarily expensive at first, and many things have accumulated over time before today.

Second, things with a few dollars are also collectible, and Song money is the most typical example!

Many people say that cheap goods are not good, and cheap things have no collection significance, but now we look at Song money, and now several Song money are basically a few dollars, but the Song Dynasty was also a thousand years ago. Can't this thousand-year history prove its collection significance? Therefore, the coin collection in Song Dynasty is of great significance. After all, it was used by people in those days. Qian Wen also embodied the calligraphy fonts that were popular in the society at that time. We can also learn Song Dynasty calligraphy from Qian Wen!

Anything with historical significance is collectible! Many things can't just look at the surface, it depends on whether it has historical significance!

Historical significance is actually the sense of existence in history. The existence of many things provides us with great clues to study ancient life or habits. We can also learn about the living conditions in those years through these things. In fact, these are what archaeologists need to know. We just need to know that ancient things are not necessarily expensive as long as they are collectible, but similarly, if they are expensive and scarce, they may not reach us. Is that so?
