<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2575680, member: 19463&quot;]I most certainly agree with the suggestion of the Anthony book.&nbsp; I do also suggest that there is a lot of good to be gained by reading, following and digesting online materials from sales by large dealers like CNG:</p><p><a href="https://www.cngcoins.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cngcoins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.cngcoins.com/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>even if you have no intention to bid in their sales or buy coins that high priced at the present time.&nbsp; Many lots have write-ups that will be better than what you can find elsewhere for free.&nbsp; I do not suggest a new collector jump in to buying many coins until there has been a bit of a study period.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, I would be quite happy for you to visit my non-commercial, educational web pages perhaps starting with the series I call Vocabulary of Greek Coins:</p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/voc.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/voc.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/voc.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>There are a hundred+ pages on my site some of which are on Greek subjects as well.&nbsp; Again, my pages are aimed at education and not at making you a skillful collector in the marketplace.&nbsp; There are many other websites on various specialties.&nbsp; Google will help you find them.&nbsp;&nbsp; Finally I suggest being an active participant here on Coin Talk.&nbsp; Don&#039;t just lurk.&nbsp; Ask questions when something is not clear. Our membership includes people not as advanced as you (the ones who have not asked are behind the ones who have) and people who have been playing with these things for over fifty years. There will be no shortage of opinions on your questions.&nbsp; Welcome.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
