[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2939150, member: 51347"]I collect for historical reasons and not really as a numismatist. I could not part with any of my coins. I plan to keep them until I pass, then have them go on to my Grandchildren. That being said, I also recognize there are potential issues in life that can change that premise. In reality, albeit they are not an investment, the collection could be a store of wealth in case of an emergency or catastrophic event. Besides the Roman Republic, I collect some out-of-ordinary niches, so I could not part with any or all of them (I am approaching 1,000 Ancients): [B]ETRURIA:[/B] [ATTACH=full]715534[/ATTACH] Etruria Populonia AR 1 As 0.60g 10.0mm after 211 BCE Male Head L - Plain Rev Vecchi 3 68-70 HN Italy 181 EXTREMELY RARE [B]CARTHAGE:[/B] [ATTACH=full]715535[/ATTACH] Carthage - Zeugitana AV 1-10th Stater-Shekel 350-320 BCE 0.94g 7.5mm Palm- Horse Head [B]CAPUA:[/B] [ATTACH=full]715536[/ATTACH] Campania CAPUA AE Semuncia 216-211 Juno Xoanon Hannibal capital Italia SCARCE . . .
