<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4515447, member: 26302&quot;]Excellent point actually. This is where &quot;smaller fish&quot; can shine. Heck, grab a copy of Guido Bruck&#039;s Late Roman work, and anyone on this board could create a world class collection of a series. Priced out of &quot;big&quot; coins? Then research and concentrate on an area not being pursued by the &quot;big boys&quot;. Numismatics is about research, holding history, and maybe adding something to the knowledge base. By being specialized in an area somewhat overlooked, and becoming an expert, there are still PLENTY of undiscovered knowledge. </p><p><br /></p><p>Like I said before, I would love to own all kinds of fancy coins, and do love owning my Cleo VIIs, I also love my Sassanids, Constantine VII&#039;s, Himyarites, Huns, Kushan, and many other sub-collection areas I pursue. XF/FDC large silver and gold are not the only ancient coins that exist. Just like I don&#039;t own a house on Lake Minnetonka, I don&#039;t own FDC greek gold. I am happy with what I can afford, and am grateful for being able to collect ANY ancient coins quite frankly. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
