<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1037494, member: 19463&quot;]If there has been one way of collecting that I have never understood it is the idea that a Roman collection must have one coin per emperor and a Greek collection needs one coin per city.&nbsp; That means that I need a Britannicus as certainly as a Constantine and a hundred Greek places that no one knows where they were on par with an Athens.&nbsp; With enough cash, one can aspire to have a complete year/mint set of US coins (although the 1933 double eagle may hang you up a bit).&nbsp; A complete set of ancients to the level of type/mint without getting into minor varieties would not fit in my bank&#039;s vault (not my box but the whole thing) and I&#039;d miss learning about some of the minor varieties so my want list would be multi-volumes.&nbsp; I appreciate that some of you want a Saturninus but If I got one I&#039;d sell it and buy 10,000 other coins duplicating rulers I already had.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
