We sometimes keep objects out of habit. But you could be richer than you think if you have any of these eight objects.

‘Vintage’ foods

Any limited-edition item is worth a fortune, and this rule even applies to food. What at first is just old, later becomes rare, just like old cereal boxes which could go for up to £6,400 or even bottles of Michael Jordan’s limited-edition energy drinks which can go for almost £13,000.

Old phones

The first iPhones or bricks that we used as phones in the 90s cost a fortune today. For example, a set of two iPhone 2Gs in their packaging is on sale for about £9,000.

Video games

The video game market is doing very well. And if you have any vintage games, they’re actually a gold mine. An old Tamagotchi goes for £1,500, while a game boy can go for £4,500.

Vinyl collections

A vinyl’s cover is sometimes more important than what’s inside. A copy of the Beatles album Yesterday and Today with its quite shocking album cover is very, very rare. The four musicians on the cover are surrounded by the heads, arms and legs of deconstructed baby dolls. A copy has been sold for £90,000.

Coins

Some euro coins are very rare and go for a lot of money. A two-euro coin dedicated to Grace Kelly goes for between £550 to £900.
