<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 5791387, member: 26302&quot;]Fair enough. One thing I would warn you about ancients is nothing is available all the time. You will bang your head against the wall if you get a narrow focus, (say Antioch tets or Roman Egypt), because it will be feast or famine. Sometimes a huge hoard hits and you are good for a year, then they are gone and almost NOTHING is on the market. Ancients are where my multiple focus really bloomed. Ancient Chinese used to be cheap and plentiful, then they rose in price and went away. If I was ONLY an ancient Chinese collector I would have been frustrated. Instead, I kept an eye on them but looked around and picked up another specialty, one where there was quantities available. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just a suggestion. Ancients are about PATIENCE. I took a decade to be able to acquire a silver coin with Christopher on it of Constantine VII. Its how it goes. I actually love that about ancients though. It rewards perseverance, its not all about your bank account.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
