<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2211991, member: 26302&quot;]My idea of a set is not one. Sure, I have ideas of coins I would consider related, but that is my idea. The beauty of ancient collecting is there are so many coins, so many ways to collect there truly is no right and wrong way.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If someone wanted an inexpensive set to pursue, I would recommend getting a copy of Guido Bruck&#039;s book, (new English translation), and find a series in that that you like. His book goes over the massive varieties in many late roman bronze coins. Just picking out something like wolf and twins reverse and putting together a set with 25 different varieties would be a worthwhile, inexpensive, and decade long quest.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>However, the bottom line is its very personal. Its your hobby, pursue and put together a collection that YOU find interesting, and simply do not care what anyone else in the world thinks about it. Many collectors here do not really understand why I pursue what I pursue, and that is great. We all have different tastes, thankfully. Ancients are such a narrowly traded field that if many of us pursued the same coins we couldn&#039;t afford them at all. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
