http://coinindia.com/fifty-coins3.html If you are at all interested in ancient coins from places other than Greece and Rome, you should check out this overview: 50 COINS IN 2,500 YEARS A Numismatic Walk through Indian History. The author has selected 2 coins from each century starting with the earliest Indian coins. Many are great rarities but some are available for as little as $20 in decent shape. If you collect such things, you may be interested in the selections; if not, you may want to see what is available to collect. A coin is posted each week. At present, the list is half finished and has reached the 7th century AD. It will continue through the medieval period. A version of this material previously appeared in the Celator magazine. I did not see it there so I'm anxious each week to see the pick. I linked to page 3 which is the latest posting but you will want to go back and see the first two pages as well.
