<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2844999, member: 74282&quot;]In my opinion two of the best resources for the new collector are the websites created by <a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/" rel="nofollow">Doug Smith</a> and <a href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/" rel="nofollow">Warren Esty</a>. Both of them will expose you to a wide array of topics related to ancient coins and you can get a good look at several different areas and styles of collecting and a feel for what makes collecting these coins interesting to different collectors. These sites will also expose you to terminology like &quot;die match&quot;, &quot;brockage&quot; and &quot;seriation&quot; that you might not understand right now but will occasionally see used here in write ups and of course both of these sites have book reviews that might help you choose a good book or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
