<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2864640, member: 19463&quot;]As owner of about ten feet of shelved catalogs and a dozen boxes in the attic of ones that I did not find room for downstairs, I can answer that one.&nbsp; Finding the coin you are seeking is really hard when you have to look in all those books.&nbsp; At least museum catalogs have all the similar things grouped in some order.&nbsp; However the new and best answer is online accessible by search engines.&nbsp; Try to find all the denarii of Pescennius Niger in 106 CNG catalogs and you are up for many hours work.&nbsp;&nbsp; Go to CNG&#039;s website and go to the Research page.&nbsp; Type in Pescennius and get almost 200 hits (a few are ringers like the Parthian Vologases V who supported him but you can deal with that). </p><p>Elapsed time is about the same as looking in one catalog.&nbsp; I regret CNG never digitised their catalogs from the last century but in a few decades, those will be less missed because of all the new sales.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
