<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marsyas Mike, post: 4014084, member: 85693&quot;]Welcome to Coin Talk, zenlib.&nbsp; I feel your pain - I too cannot afford RIC - it costs more than my <i>current</i> car!&nbsp; However, have you tried OCRE (Online Coins of the Roman Empire)?&nbsp; Once you get the hang of it, it is quite easy to use, and it is arranged by RIC numbering.&nbsp; <a href="http://numismatics.org/ocre/results" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://numismatics.org/ocre/results" rel="nofollow">http://numismatics.org/ocre/results</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I also use Wildwinds, acsearch, Vcoins, and other online sources to attribute coins and find that by &quot;triangulation&quot; of results, I can usually figure out what I have (and when I can&#039;t, the good folks at Coin Talk can lend a hand).&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I know it goes against the grain with many collectors, but I have found that the Internet has made ancient coin attribution much, much more fruitful, fun, and accurate than the hours I used to spend in libraries c. 1988.&nbsp; Mostly this is because of the images, but searches and online forums like this one make a big difference as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
