<p>[QUOTE="Mat, post: 1221639, member: 21445"]If your happy with the slab then keep it in, its up to you. I'd have that sucker out, lol. But I dont blame new ancient collectors liking the safety of the slab, there is alot of fakes but thats in any area in the coin world <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>As for Roman's more common then greek? Hard to say. There is ALOT of greeks available at all kinds of price ranges. I have more romans then greeks and I own no greek silver but I am only 17 months in collecting ancients so I am not comfortable buying greek silvers due to alot of fakes & they tend to be more expensive then your average silver roman imperial.</p><p><br /></p><p>I highly suggest you visit <a href="http://dougsmith.ancients.info/voc2.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://dougsmith.ancients.info/voc2.html" rel="nofollow">http://dougsmith.ancients.info/voc2.html</a> for info on Roman Republic coins, which yours falls into.</p><p><br /></p><p>And visit the main page for information for beginners of ancients and the various worlds of Ancients one can collect.
