<p>[QUOTE="joecoincollect, post: 1943692, member: 71338"]Thanks so much. Very good info. I guess the ancients I'm interested in are Roman, are 100 or 200 bc to 400 or 500 AD. I don't like the look of those cup coins I see on ebay, which I think are Byzantine or something. Nor do I like or know about medieval coinage, or ancient Greek coinage. That makes sense, what you said about buying uncleaned coins. Sometimes you can tell some of them have good details underneath the dirt, but most of them probably turn out to be losers. However, there's something quite fun about cleaning them and uncovering whatever's left behind through the ages.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
