<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 2190504, member: 51347&quot;]Steve and Mat...I love those coins!&nbsp; Sometimes the well-worn coin is so cool because of all the hands that touched them so many years ago...and what / why they were spending the coin!</p><p><br /></p><p>I am just starting on this quest of amassing Roman Republicans.&nbsp; I have studied a lot of ancient histories since childhood.&nbsp; However, I kept coming back to the Roman Republic.&nbsp; I love them because of the true history the Republic represents.&nbsp; Everyone seems to know the Empire, but it was the struggles, the mistakes, the learning, the reinvention of government, the people, the pure tenacity, the innovations, their military, their audacity, and their SUCCESS, etc. of the Republic that culminated into the Empire.&nbsp; Just an amazing human experience and accomplishment!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The RR coins that I am very fortunate and blessed to have are august place-markers in their history.&nbsp; I usually try to understand the time period and go to my history books and references well before I look at my coin sites or coin books.&nbsp; It is the historical time frame that couches the coin and why the coin was struck that is more fascinating to me.&nbsp; Just love it![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
