This is an interesting topic and I have to tell you, I see things a bit differently.

Collectibles are attractive to many because of the possible profit they are hoping to make sometime in the future. There are different types of collectors. Some are collecting everything they think, or hope to have some value one day in the future, from paintings to coins. Others are niche collectors, focusing on something specific, like coins issued between a certain period of time.

I'm not a collector, but am working with one, I'm responsible for making the deals and I know for sure those investing in collectibles because they are afraid of hyperinflation are less.

The majority of collectors do it regardless of hyperinflation. Owning something very limited edition means a lot, even if it's not an internationally sought after item. It means power.

However, you can own a painting for example, that is evaluated to billions, but if no one is able or willing to pay the price, the painting worth as much as the highest bidder is willing to pay for it.

I hope it's not too confusing :)
