<p>[QUOTE="ValiantKnight, post: 2267505, member: 44210"]Like many others here I basically began with only focusing on acquiring the best-looking coins for my buck, with not too much regards on a specific dynasty, era, etc. aside from wanting to keep things "Roman". As I gathered more coins I also gathered even more of an urge to learn more about Roman history. From there my attention gravitated towards the later Roman Empire, its decline and "fall", and its immediate successor states. This in turn had a great influence on what I wanted to focus on with regards to my collection. I still collect from other parts of Roman history, and have expanded to European medieval and early Islamic, but my primary focus is Roman/Germanic 4th-6th centuries AD. Its not the most popular era to collect from, but I was never a part of the "cool" crowd anyways.</p><p><br /></p><p>Collect what interests you, and you can never go wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
