<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iamtiberius, post: 1584767, member: 37707&quot;]Wow, takes me back a bit. I completely understand that situation. I grew up in Salt Lake. There are about 10-15 decent coin shop shops in the area. I started collecting at 5. SLC coin shop owners are notorious for being rude and giving you that feeling of &quot;you&#039;re wasting my time.&quot; </p><p><br /></p><p>My advice; Continue going to the shop, study a coin you are interested in that you know they have in their inventory. Impress the dealers with the knowledge you have about the particular coin you are interested in. Once you have become familiarized with the dealers, they should welcome you. You would be surprised at how many dealers are scouting for young talent. They need sharp minds; especially with a a particular field like ancient coins which not many teenagers are interested in.&nbsp; In combination with time spent in their shop, a professional above expectation maturity for your age, and a decent knowledge level... you might find yourself being offered a summer job. Great foot in the door. I wish I grew up in Chicago for this very reason. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>On a coin buying note. That ariobarzanes drachm on page 3 for 32.00 is looking pretty good sitting their without an owner. You should pick it up.
