A new ancients collector here from Western Mass

Hey everyone. My primary collecting focus is on ancient Rome, but I also have plenty of Byzantines, other ancients, and some world coins. I'm not all that picky about grade (it's hard to be when you collect ancients), and I even have a few broken coins that I'm rather satisfied with. I'm much more concerned with whether I find what I can see aesthetically pleasing than if it's perfectly struck or if it's in perfect condition.

One thing I've been wanting to know is if there are any coin shows or dealers in or near the Western Massachusetts area that have a decent selection of affordable ancients. Anyone know of any?

Welcome to the forum.

Not sure if you have these yet or not, but these are the two sites I use most when buying ancients:


www.vcoins.com

www.forumancientcoins.com

I've used both of them before, but thanks anyway.
