[QUOTE="TerDev, post: 25301233, member: 156563"]Hi, I posted this in the General forum earlier but have just realised this is probably the better place! Sorry in advance if I ask daft questions already answered elsewhere. I've just started off on my journey in collecting ancient coins and unsurprisingly I'm already confused :) The first thing is the acronyms - I've looked around sites including here but I can't seem to find a full list of acronyms that can be used in coin descriptions, well at least in the description on the coin I have just purchased. It says "vgl S 46 Nr 9" - I'm guessing that's 'very good - low' or 'very good lustre (?)' but the other ones have me stuck.... unless it's a reference to a journal? My 'plan' is too collect a coin from all the Roman emperors where possible, but I'm super aware that might be harder than I think.... Cheers J[/QUOTE]
