Vlan1 is a logical interface. It will clear with a reload. Remember, VLAN1
is all ports on the VLAN, so if you have 4 or 5 ports in VLAN1 connected to,
say, 24 port hubs, the VLAN collision count will be high.
Remember, that a switch running full duplex will have NO collisions, and a
duplex mismatch will show late collisions if the switch is half and the
other side is full, and CRC errors if the switch is full, and the other side
is half.
Don't worry about collisions on the VLAN, worry about collisions on the
physical interfaces.

The counters won't clear. I used the ff command:
CLEAR COUNTERS VLAN1
I'm still seeing the same number of collisions on vlan1. Here's my trunk
configuration. What am I missing?
6509: interface fa2/10
no ip address
duplex full
switchport
switchport trunk encapsulation isl
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,206,207,1002-1005
switchport mode trunk
!
2905: interface FastEthernet0/1
duplex full
speed 100
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,206,207,1002-1005
switchport mode trunk
spanning-tree portfast
!
