<p>[QUOTE="mrweaseluv, post: 1544443, member: 40340"]cheapest way to get in that i found was to buy a set of 10 "buried" roman coins for $10 and do a bit of research into how to clean them. You will end up with 9 peices of junk and maybe 1 nice whole common "small" coin. While mine are still not clean enough for identification yet (at least not by me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />) i posted my best one here and have at least and idea what i have. And while i have been doing some reading (and waiting for a book to arrive, damn slow media mail) I have learn quite a bit already right here reading the ancient coin posts. Again, I myself am a base beginner in ancient coins but I can say i have already gotten a good $10s worth of enjoyment out of that lot of coins and am looking into some silver peices in the future once i know enough not to get easily robbed <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>edit.. cool i ordered the right book <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>"Zander Klawans book "Ancient Greek & Roman Coins"[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
