<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 4128609, member: 44316&quot;]I&#039;ll make a different suggestion. Set that huge lot aside and forget it. Begin anew with nicer coins. If you don&#039;t want to buy coins one-at-a-time, many large auctions have individual lots with 20 or 50 or 100 reasonably nice late Roman bronzes that can be easily attributed by experts and which have enough good details for you to be able to learn how to read and decipher coin legends. Then, when you are done, you will have some reasonable coins you can either be happy to own or pass along--attributed--to others who might be interested (high school history classes, etc.).</p><p><br /></p><p>Would you rather spend many frustrating hours on a thankless task, or many happy hours on a task with benefits?&nbsp; Don&#039;t let 1000 lousy coins keep you from enjoying our great hobby!&nbsp; It is &quot;Water under the bridge.&quot;&nbsp; Or, as an economist would say, a &quot;sunk cost.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
