<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 3568003, member: 86498&quot;]The passage referenced by Voldya got me to thinking. Some of what he said is true. I believe that my collection is a function of available resources coupled with what I perceive my collecting goals to be which can be somewhat elastic meeting available coins. Okay perhaps an illustration. Recently I was able to purchase a few coins from a collection formed by a good friend. There was this coin[ATTACH=full]949583[/ATTACH]</p><p>A Bosporan Av Stater of Rhoemetalkes and Hadrian. MacDonald 437/2 RPC 908 This coin illustrated. This coin is at the fringe of what I collect but I liked the coin ever since I first saw it and even though I probably would not go out to buy one well long story short. It was available and soooo ... bought it. Having done that I saw this coin as well .&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]949587[/ATTACH] </p><p>Bosporan Av? Stater of Rhescoporus II and Severus Alexander.MacDonald 563/1.&nbsp; I thought the coin was attractive and I like the style so I bought it.(The dreaded impulse buy) So even though I have an overall goal of what I would like to achieve many of the component parts can be sometimes less well defined. Thus my resources coupled with my goals meeting availability.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
