<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1093476, member: 26302&quot;]Agreed. Breen, from what I heard from people who knew him, was a legend in his own mind, and never let inconsequential details get in the way. That said, he was a great numismatist who contributed greatly to the hobby. I am sure any correction of one of his books is indeed great to know. At a minimum, its great to document in your own references, and take advantage of that knowledge if possible. All of the great collectors did just that, they filled their references with errors so they could be more knowledgable than others. Knowledge is money in this hobby.</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone know if any website collect errata from Breen&#039;s books?</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S. I didn&#039;t mean to thrwo Breen under the bus, its just what contemporaries of his told me. You want to hear about horror stories, have a Sassanid collector tell you about Gobl! lol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
