<p>[QUOTE="Croatian Coin Collector, post: 25131767, member: 153043"]To be honest, even if I somehow managed to come into that kind of money, I seriously doubt that I would spend a large percentage of it on coins, my plan is to try to buy one quality gold coin from each country that is of historical interest to me, with a few exceptions, mostly ancient Rome and Greece, from where I would buy a few gold coins instead of just one (and in the case of ancient Greece, I am also interested in buying the Athenian silver tetradrachm from the 5th century BCE), and that wouldn't change if I suddenly became extremely rich, what would change is that I would buy them all much sooner and since I wouldn't have to think about money, I could buy the best version of each coin available with a complete peace of mind, while as to which coins I would buy, the list would probably look something like this:</p><p><br /></p><p>Aureus of Marcus Aurelius</p><p><br /></p><p>5th century BCE Athenian silver tetradrachm in really top condition</p><p><br /></p><p>Gold stater of Eucratides I</p><p><br /></p><p>Gold stater of Alexander the Great from the 4th century BCE</p><p><br /></p><p>Achaemenid Empire daric gold coin</p><p><br /></p><p>The 8th century Tang Dynasty gold coin you can see on my avatar</p><p><br /></p><p>Annamese gold coin</p><p><br /></p><p>Seljuk gold dinar of Alp Arslan</p><p><br /></p><p>Ottoman sultani gold coin of Mehmed II</p><p><br /></p><p>Carthaginian gold stater from the 4th century BCE</p><p><br /></p><p>Duchy of Milan gold ducat of Filippo Maria Visconti </p><p><br /></p><p>Gold Noble of Henry V</p><p><br /></p><p>Mughal gold Mohur of Aurangzeb</p><p><br /></p><p>German Empire gold Mark coin</p><p><br /></p><p>When I think of more of them, I will edit this post and add them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
