[QUOTE="AncientJoe, post: 1989974, member: 44357"]Great coins, everyone! I hope you do reply to coins like mine - everyone has different budgets and there are many people in this world that could buy the entirety of all of our collections hundreds of times over. We all have to work within our individual situation but with ancients, the entry price to acquire historic and interesting coins is very low. One of my first ancient coins was a sad looking campgate which cost $20. I bought it when I was heavily interested in early US gold coins, most of which cost in the mid-five-figures. Yet, that campgate was the coin I would keep coming back to. I then bought a $30 denarius and there was no turning back. It's impossible to say what coin may spark someone's interest but I know that if I thought all ancient coins were very expensive, I likely wouldn't have ever started. Seeing the range of coins posted here is a great resource for new and budding collectors.[/QUOTE]
