<p>[QUOTE=&quot;greekandromancoins, post: 2764863, member: 87990&quot;]I originally started by collecting pre-decimal Australian currency at a young age. My grandmother gave me a head start by gifting me her collection. She had the foresight to store away lots of it when we moved to decimal currency in 1966.</p><p><br /></p><p>Although I had an interest ancient coins (greek and roman) from an early age, I mistakenly assumed they were unaffordable and / or exclusively in museums. It was only as an adult that I discovered the truth and began collecting them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Later, I recommenced collecting modern coins - proof sets. Mainly because I would read about proof sets but as a child never owned one.</p><p><br /></p><p>The novelty wore off quickly as it did not give me the same satisfaction as collecting ancient coins, so I sold almost all of my modern collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>Today, I have no intention to collect anything other than ancients.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
