    I'm very new to ancient coins, not even two months yet and have just started researching what I need to know (or at least think I need to know). As far as buying the coins goes, who would you consider trustworthy dealers on Ebay and elsewhere (links would be welcome if they are allowed here). Thank you for any help anyone can give me here.

    Help received would be more effective if you told us roughly where you are. The answers would be different if you said Eastern US than if you said France. We don't need an address. This group has some dealer members and might help you find local coin shows.

    I'm in Northern Virginia but I'm looking as much online - in fact, more so due to the fact that I travel a LOT for work - as I am for local shows etc. Thank you for responding so quickly.

    I will when I get a chance. I am about to give a lecture to 300 so I am a little pre-occupied at the moment. I should have a chance after the lecture.

    Did not know about https://bnumis.com ... nice!
    I also agree that Rudnik's website will make you want to pull your hair out...
    But I have purchased from him and he was very easy to deal with.

    Marc Breitsprecher is on my mind since I just bought a fabulous coin from him. Paid for it Sunday night, received it in the mail today. Impressive! He's an experienced and trustworthy dealer located in Ft. Worth, TX. https://mrbcoins.com/

  19. YES! Marc is one of my favorite dealers. I have bought many coins from him. He has an excellent selection, great prices, and professional service.
    I have to add Incitatus Coins as one of my favorites dealers as well.
