<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2212219, member: 19463&quot;]As you can see from all the suggestions, there are too many choices.&nbsp; That is why my &#039;set&#039; contains coins that &#039;speak&#039; to me.&nbsp; I see no reason to start sets that will never be completed and most ancient sets are pretty open ended.&nbsp; In the time since I have been collecting the Eastern denarii of Septimius Severus, there have been more new variations discovered than appear in the standard catalog (RIC) for this specialty.&nbsp; Below is a group shot of my favorite 99 1/2 coins.&nbsp; If you visit the page it came from you can click on a coin and go to an explanation of why that coin made that list.&nbsp; Since I posted that page, I have made a couple changes to the coins covered but there is no reason to set a stopping point to a collection of coins that speak to you. </p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/favgroup.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/favs.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/favs.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/favs.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I do not expect you to like all of these coins.&nbsp; You might not even like the few of them with Christian connections.&nbsp; You might not like the similar number of them that fall in your price range.&nbsp; That is OK because that photo shows a tiny fraction of one percent of the choices available to you and many of those choices are available in your range.&nbsp; Buy a set coin coins that you like.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
