In my opinion, if you are a numismatist adding coins, banknotes and exonumia to their gallery and then the dungeon of their castles, is likely to collect other things.

Here's what I collect as well.

1. Stamps - that was my thing before coins took over again (2018 - 2019), I have big collections of NZ and Australia, UK and most Commonwealth and Pacific countries. I still have them as I sunk mega money into this stuff between 2005 and 2021. Covid killed off my enthusiasm a bit.

2. Lego - Only the adult stuff like Creator modular buildings and architectural models like Neuschwanstein castle, Trevi Fountain, Museum etc and I even owned a Lego Titanic at one stage (I had a deprived child hood and try to compensate for it).

The lego looks like toys, but they are very hard to build (Taking a few days) and are not cheap (Figure $300 + per set). Its all R18 or more.

Lego has come a long way since I was kid. I actually preferred Meccano.
Off course, the one thing everyone hates is stepping on a Lego block with bare feet, LOL

My only other collection is stamps. I did have some bank notes, but sold them off to buy more coins.
