<p>[QUOTE="Sulla80, post: 25695849, member: 99456"]My primary collection of Roman Republican coins is growing at a modest pace in recent years (24 last year, 15 this year, so far), much slower if upgrades and minor variants are not counted. The coins I am looking for, don't show up often in the marketplace and even less often in a state that interests me. That said - I have a general collection and add a coin a week (at least) to <a href="http://www.sullacoins.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sullacoins.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.sullacoins.com/</a>.
