<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1241797, member: 19463&quot;]I don&#039;t think we disagree on this as much as you think.&nbsp; The point as I see it is that beginners as represented by most posters here on Coin Talk need to be careful buying rare books at auction without knowing why they would want those books.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree Sellwood is a good book in many respects although for many uses I prefer Shore which is a lot more recent and has photos.&nbsp; What I am unclear on is when I would suggest buying these two books.&nbsp; Before you get one Parthian coin? No.&nbsp; At 10 coins? Maybe.&nbsp; At 100? Certainly.&nbsp; Wait until after the sale and tell us what Hephthalite reference was of interest.&nbsp; I wonder how many here on CT own one Hephthalite coin?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
