<p>[QUOTE="Pavlos, post: 3187813, member: 96635"]I am really thinking to have a complete denomination set of Greek coins from Tetartemorion (or hemiobol) all the way till tetradrachm (with some bronzes preferably as well) from the same city. Now I am thinking, which city? I was thinking to do Ephesos, until now I saw Tetartemorion, hemiobol, obol, diobol, drachm and tetradrachm and bronzes getting sold from Ephesos. Also Ephesos is very interesting because of the change in coin design over time (Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic and Imperial).</p><p><br /></p><p>The only downside is that Greek coins from Ephesos are really expensive, I see sometimes bronze coins going for around 60-70$. I mean on one side this is good because it is challenging and who knows it takes a some years to complete this whole set. On the other side I of course do not prefer to spend a 1000$ to complete the whole set. What are your opinions? Does anyone suggest another city? If yes, which city? Thank you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
