<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2567256, member: 19463&quot;]While I agree with the books suggested and would promote Sear to the top, we just have to live with the fact that there are a million types and no book will ever be written that is at all comprehensive.&nbsp; Sear did a pretty good job selecting the coins seen most often or that are representative of the city/period they represent.&nbsp; Just don&#039;t make the mistake of thinking that you have something special because your coin is a bit (or a lot) different from the Sear coin.&nbsp; That is even more true with his Provincial (Greek Imperial) book where he settles for one coin of a city per ruler in most cases even though some of them might have a thousand variations.&nbsp; The same variety count that makes ancients interesting make it just plain impossible to have a &#039;Red Book&#039; for ancients.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
