A few things will be important here i would think (all conjecture on my part), 1) when you acquired the items in your collection pre or post marriage, 2) the divorce laws in your particular state and 3) whether you had a pre-nup agreement and what is specified in said agreement.
You might be able to keep the collection (if she agrees), but would owe her 1/2 its value that could be satisfied by giving up other assets.
As to whether you can regain possession prior to the final divorce decree I don't know.
