[QUOTE="Andrey5, post: 644186, member: 6289"]You can try collecting by metal (only gold, only silver or copper). There are separate reference books for coins in each metal. Some collect by denomination. I am among those since I focus on Roubles, which is challenging enough if you try to go for better grades. Some collect by Emperors. There are reference books by ruler, thought I remember those only in Russian. If you read Russian you choice of numismatic literature would be much bigger. It's not too difficult to start by collecting a set from 1/4 Kopeck to a Rouble of any year of a particular ruler from Nickolas II, going back in time to Peter I. Then you could expand to commemorative Roubles, or to major types of coins of a ruler or to trying to get full range of years of certain denominations of a particular ruler.
