[QUOTE="kaparthy, post: 19354, member: 57463"]I have not done this in far too long, I guess. I have done it, of course. The nice thing is not just looking at it all, but laying it out. With ancients Greeks, for instance, there is an arbitrary method of starting with Spain and working your way north and east around the Mediterranean clockwise to Egypt, and Cyrene, and ending with Carthage. None of this is mandatory. There are no Whitman folders for it, that's for sure. Mostly, it is a matter of looking at them all, using a lens on some, and basically appreciating them for what they are. The thing is -- and this is why I'm glad you brought it up -- some of my numismatic materials are in other areas, where they do not get the same kind of admiration. Aviation on Banknotes, Scientists on Banknotes, and so on, these other collections are in with flying, science, etc., so I do not see them, do not perceive them, in the same way as the other numismatic items. Perhaps I should. Michael[/QUOTE]
