My daughter is 8, and we've had a lot of fun collecting coins together. Whether that translates into future interest remains to be seen. :)
I see your point as well, Zohar, but to clarify, I am not a professional - just an enthusiastic amateur. We simply have two different plans as far...
They are indeed beautiful examples of the type. They demonstrate that high Roman art can be found on the smallest of coins, as well as the...
