<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 2348116, member: 72790&quot;]I was blessed with what used to be called a &quot;classical education&quot;. We studied, among other history courses, ancient history and the classical languages of Greek and Latin. I suppose that when it came to numismatics this would explain my interest in ancient, Byzantine and medieval coinage. Since it is not a matter of speaking these languages (modern Greek is as different from Ancient Greek as Italian from Latin) that they are studied it is possible for the motivated collector to study these two languages on his own and acquire a decent reading knowledge of them. For anyone who is serious about being a collector of ancients I heartily recommend trying this. It will add immeasurably to your pleasure. Fortuna te adjuvet.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
