<p>[QUOTE=&quot;khufulogick, post: 1154559, member: 30396&quot;]What I want to do, and have always wanted to do, is to collect a particular standard coin of every Roman emperor, from the republican period right up to the end of the byzantine period. Then i&#039;ll line em all up in a display case. I don&#039;t want to spend too much and i&#039;d rather it was not valuable as I dont&#039; want to have to worry too much about it. What i&#039;m after really is the symbolic value of it all. So I can line em all up and show people that I got every coin and compare the transition from the republican-greek style to the imperial, to the Apollo-Sol Invictus phase, etc. To the destruction and debasement in the barbarian period and onward.... So I need to decide on a particular roman coin value to collect? Any help please. I think I was thinking Denarius before but i&#039;m not sure. </p><p><br /></p><p>I guess i&#039;m asking.... which roman coin-type is most ubiquitous for the greatest time period.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also... I am not a coin-expert. I have good general knowledge in many areas but coins is not really one of them so i&#039;d rather not spend too much since I guess heaps of e-bay coins are fakez[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
