It's very easy to outlevel some of the mobs with the collectible you want. If that happens, you have two scenarios. First is find an alternative location for the drop, though often this will be a veteran area in Silver or Gold zones. 2nd is to roll an alt that will be in the level range for your drop. Check this thread for alternate drop locations: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/129559/collectible-achievement-guide-spoiler-alert/p1
FYI, I've gotten almost all my collectibles in veteran zones, since they didn't even work right in the game until after I was level 50. A few I got on alts because the veteran alternative was a poor substitute. I only have two left, and I may do another alt for one of them, as Westry in Glennumbra is the only place with high concentrations of rapidly respawning wraiths.

You can keep them if you want but it is advised to sell them since obtaining them period locks in the achievement progress.

@UltimaJoe777 , are you confirming that on the console, just having them in your inventory marks the item as complete in your journal for the achievement? Please flag my name or message me so I get your response, thanks.
