<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 6271520, member: 87200&quot;]Not sure I am a senior member but I recall the days before the Internet where I visited a local coin shop where the proprietor kept a display case of ancients. I started collecting at 10 years old. By the time I was 14 I was receiving both fixed price lists and auctions-by-mail from notables like Frank L. Kovacs, who was my mentor in collecting at the time. During the early Internet boom (1995-2000) I was in my mid to late twenties but I had stopped collecting by that time. Too busy with grad school and work to collect. Plus, I got married and had kids so that cut even further into my time. I re-started collecting in 2015 and by then the Internet had completely revolutionized how ancient coins were sold and the platforms could be considered&nbsp; very robust and mature, still kind of a hoax, though <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
