Whether you call them collectibles, family keepsakes or heirlooms, there is something special about certain items that are passed down from generation to generation. These collectibles could be in memory of an event such as the specially minted coin that commemorates the horrible events of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 or they could be a spectacular collection of Presidential Coins that mark the U.S. Presidents throughout the years. Perhaps it is a spectacular crystal goblet from Waterford Crystal that becomes the hallmark of your family collectible collection or something special from the leaders in Collectibles, The Franklin Mint. One never knows what that one little thing of today will be worth in a hundred years. Who would ever have thought that a little Barbie Doll first manufactured in the 1960's and retained in its original condition in its original packaging could be worth tens of thousands of dollars. Or that old metal sword from the Civil War worth over a hundred thousand dollars. What a wonderful way to pass along potential wealth to our descendants and the items contained here could very well be in the same league as that little doll. Know body knows for sure, but for the little amount involved in pricing, why not leave them something memorable anyway. Collectibles are a thing of the past and the present and in hundreds or thousands of years, these family heirlooms might be priceless.

Waterford Crystal - The beginnings of glass making in Ireland are lost in the mists of time but there is sufficient archaeological evidence to show that, from the early Iron Age, glass was regarded with respect. Indeed, medieval documents can prove glass making existed in Ireland back in the middle 13th century. However, the Waterford Crystal story started to blossom in 1783 when two brothers, George and William Penrose, founded their crystal manufacturing business in the busy port of Waterford. They were important developers and the city's principal exporters. The development, they told the Irish Parliament, cost £10,000 - a great deal of money in the 18th century. Even the New Years Ball that falls in New York is made by the artisans of Waterford. Check them out today!
