Collectors plates are great if you want something decorative to hang on the wall, but as investments they fall far short of the expectations the companies that sold them claimed would occur. Very few of these plates have even maintained their original retail value let alone appreciate in value over the last 30 years. In the current market they often sell for under $10.00 each at auction.
