<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gavin Richardson, post: 2633195, member: 83956&quot;]My Ph.D. is in medieval studies but I do not collect medieval coins, with the exception of 2 or 3. I collect ancient Roman coins because the Emperors provide a more systematic way of organizing them in my mind; I&#039;m not sure why English kings don&#039;t do the same for me. Perhaps it&#039;s the prohibitive cost of some of the medieval issues. At any rate, it is fine articles such as this one that give me a &quot;way into&quot; the narratives of the coinage and inspire me to consider picking up a few along the way. This brief essay is a real service to the casual collector like me who is pretty ignorant of the numismatic history of the period. Thanks for taking the time to write it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
