<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 2752056, member: 74968&quot;]A truly wonderful selection of ancient coins. IMHO you have chosen very well. They are all desirable coins in nice condition. What a fantastic way to begin your foray into ancient coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some who would counsel a beginner to buy coins of lesser value. As long as one does the research first and knows what they are buying, I see nothing wrong with diving in. When I started I read for several months before buying my first coin, an Otho denarius. I have never looked back.</p><p><br /></p><p>One more piece of advice. The people on this board are friendly and extremely helpful. Many will have advice on how to collect. Collect how and what you want to. Do not let anyone, including myself of course, tell you how to collect. You are even free to ignore this advice.</p><p><br /></p><p>I really like all of your choices, but the Octavian denarii with the anepigraphic obverses are very nice indeed. That said it is hard to go wrong with a 1/4 stater of Alexander or an elephant denarius of JC.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Enjoy your new acquisitions![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
