<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 3192064, member: 87200&quot;]I started out reading about ancient coins when I was 11 and read every book I could find. I also got Max and Albert Hirmer&#039;s book <i><b>Roman Coins</b></i> which contained a timeline based historical synopsis along with beautiful plates of Roman coins of each ruler. I don&#039;t believe the book is in print anymore but I&#039;d highly recommend it to a beginner, used copies are available online. </p><p><br /></p><p>Understanding the history behind the coins leads to far more collecting pleasure, and in some cases, coins fill in the historical gaps when the source historical material is lacking or nonexistent, which is terrific.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
