[QUOTE="Lord Geoff, post: 1571589, member: 42001"]OK so I posted the first time this morning and thank you all for your responses. I'm pretty excited about this. It sounds like for me the later Roman coins are the way to go (I have a relatively low budget but decent amount of time). I have seen where people mentioned they have been putting together sets. I assume this is similar to Whitman books or the like for US cents? This seems like a good way to get started and also start learning. Can anyone suggest some different ones I might consider? Being able to get decent looking coins for not too much money is my main criterion. If I can have different suggestions selected then I can choose the one(s) I like best. One thing I do not mind is if I can not complete the set - i.e. "this would be a great set except you'll never get the ultra rare XXX from XXX". Holes do not bother me too much. Also size does not bother me too much. If a set has 30 coins then that will be fun to complete slowly over time. Thanks again guys. Geoff[/QUOTE]
