<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 7972090, member: 72790&quot;]I prefer lighter tone coins than dark ones for instructional purposes. When I was teaching I would frequently pass around the room coins from various periods of history for the students to view and actually handle (never lost a one). I noticed that students would not spend any time on those coins which were dark in color, perhaps too difficult to make out anything on the coins. I actually have several coins of Nero with less wear but which are dark in tone, too dark to observe much. That light tone dupondius was my &quot;go to&quot; coin for Nero[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
