<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1749797, member: 19463"]You have found me out. The reason for this post is not to get you interested in my Domnas or Martin's Republicans but to make sure all here are aware that there is life in this hobby after you get over the phase of filling the holes in your 'one per' collection or after you discover that everything you 'need' is out of your price range. There are a million types of ancient coins and several million ways of collecting them. Even if you did the impossible and got one of every type or even one of every die, there still would be avenues to explore. Many, most, nearly all people who own ancient coins never get to the point that they will want to own 246 variations on the Papia coin or even a set of six slightly different Tribute Pennies but those few of you that decide you are one who might are asked to remember this thread and share with us what you have discovered to be worth the study. </p><p> </p><p>PS, Martin and I already compete too much on our Severans so I really should not try to take his Papia. After all there are a few thousand new specialties out there that none of us have yet considered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
