<p>[QUOTE="Ajax, post: 3020230, member: 78656"]I managed to get out to the local coin show today. It was fun but I was a bit disappointed with the selection of ancients. I only recognized one ancient dealer, the rest were mainly modern dealers selling overpriced ancients. I was able to get two Republicans and my first Parthian. All three were bought from Robert at Calgary Coin. Very nice guy who taught me quite a bit about the striking process. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]750733[/ATTACH] RR Anonymous AR Victoriatus 211-208 BC.
