[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7326945, member: 115909"]Well yeah that is why I’m studying Classical history. I find it fascinating and interesting :). I also love Ancient Greek coinage too. But honestly I’m the kind of guy who prefers buying 1-2 really nice coins per year rather than dozens of coins that I don’t really care much about. Like I’m sure I could buy a couple dozen MS graded Washington Quarters from the 40s, 50s and 60s for less than the cost of 1 Roman aureus in low grade. But I wouldn’t really care very much about any of them. I certainly wouldn’t look at them several times a week like I would with an Aureus. My last purchase was in January when I bought a 1799 Draped Bust Dollar (F12 NGC). I wouldn’t mind buying 1 aureus per year. Having to wait and save up for a long time makes me cherish my coins even more.[/QUOTE]
