<p>[QUOTE=&quot;happycobra, post: 85421, member: 3750&quot;]I looked up Ancient Celtic on Ebay and was disappointed to find a lot roman, few English and other European coins. Thanks to Mikjo0 for the link, I have a little better understanding of the Viking coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess I had some idea that the early Viking would have made their own coins like the Greeks city-states did. After all they where very accomplished crafter. Instead it looks like the Viking acquired coins ether through trade or pillaging (MMmm swag). Does this sound like a correct conclusion?</p><p><br /></p><p>I was thinking how nice it would be for my first ancient coin to be Viking but I decided to go roman. More documentation, easier to find and cheap.&nbsp; Lol… funny that my roman Follis was made in London sometime in the early 300AD. Before I stared doing research on what coin I should buy I didn’t realize that parts of Britain was Rome territory ether…..who know![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
