<p>[QUOTE=&quot;finny, post: 4767986, member: 114280&quot;]Hi Doug, thank you for your response as well.&nbsp; I do like that lot and wow that seems like a great price for those!&nbsp; I&#039;m in Seattle, WA, USA.&nbsp; I&#039;ve mostly bought from Forum and from Holding History thus far.&nbsp; Probably because of the import restrictions I&#039;ll stick with sellers in the USA - i don&#039;t want to break any laws unwittingly with the ancient coins.&nbsp; Thank you for the suggestion and i&#039;ll take a look on biddr - i&#039;ve never used it before.&nbsp; Also i&#039;ll check out your comments in the Forum forums <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>I have been enjoying trying to id my coins and bought all the David Sear Roman Coins &amp; Their Values books, plus i search online - been using Forum sales, Wildwinds, and Tesorillo.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Mostly at this point i go for the already cleaned and id-ed coins, but thought the Digger&#039;s Choice looked promising as a way to have fun and fill in some of the more common spots for my collection.&nbsp; I know i won&#039;t get anything particularly rare or special from it.&nbsp; I&#039;ll probably pick some up and I&#039;ll be sure to write a review on here.&nbsp; I&#039;ve found Forum to be a fantastic resource - both for using the fake seller&#039;s list and for buying coins.&nbsp; I love the id cards they include with the coins - the details are really great.</p><p><br /></p><p>In going through my unknown coins from when i first started and bought some lots from someone selling off his collection, I&#039;ve found some really neat coins.&nbsp; I&#039;m not great at cleaning the coins and probably not great with the ids, but i&#039;m really enjoying that aspect of it and starting to learn some of the common reverse types.&nbsp; Also I love the Romulus/Remus with the she-wolf - what a neat origin story!&nbsp; And most recently i id-ed an Etenna, Pisidia origin coin, where i learned the origin story of the Etenna people with the snake and the girl.&nbsp; That was really neat to learn about when trying to id the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you again![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
