[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 3324299, member: 80783"]My goal is to have one Sestertius of every Roman Augustus or Caesar that issued this denomination (I am almost there, just need to upgrade a couple from "lesser" denominations), one of every Augusta (excluding the most expensive rarities), and a middle bronze of those individuals that did not issue Sestertii, from Julius Caesar to Postumus, in handsome grade and without dark patination. 100 is the limit. One coin per ruler. No, I just see if something comes along that is a major upgrade without being unreasonably expensive. That happens less and less the longer you collect. I rarely buy something that is not a Sestertius, but sometimes I do out of boredom :-) I practically got everything I wanted in three years. In the beginning, Ebay, MAShops, and Vcoins only. Nowadays, auctions only. Daily. A lot! I only found three lost pedigrees so far, but those were quite exciting and I spent dozens of hours with research on those alone (including die studies). About 100 on Roman history and coins.[/QUOTE]
