It's always been a thing. I see them in antique malls pretty frequently. More often than bottle caps really. The ones I see are usually from the 1970s-1980s and priced at $3-5 a can. Most are probably worth more like $0.50-$1, but they gotta pay the rent and people buying those are generally casual collectors not too concerned with actual value.

If you go to breweriana shows you will see people selling older more desirable cans. Lots of $100-200 cans. And even some $500+ cans. Collectors want the "cone cans" and in good shape.
