<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 2508877, member: 74968&quot;]I collected coins as a kid but sold them all of many years ago. When I was an undergrad I took many interesting courses and developed a love for history. I did my graduate work in other areas for a number of years and did not read many books of history. About 2 years ago I started looking at some ancient coins online. I became very interested in these little pieces of history and my interest in history long dormant began to wake once again. I read for several months about ancient coins-what to look for and what to avoid. I also re-read the classics like Suetonius and Livy. I looked at auction sites and fixed price lists and read many posts on different discussion boards. Then in April of 2015 I finally bought my first ancient coin (it is my avatar). </p><p><br /></p><p>So, I have been at this for about 1 1/3 years and have enjoyed myself very much so far. At one point I had more than 35 ancient coins. I now have fewer than 30. I am trying to be very selective regarding the coins I acquire. Those that do not quite fit my focus will find other more appreciative homes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
