The store you are talking about though I believe is pretty high priced, and knows little to nothing on ancients. Your certificate is proof of that, most ancient collectors in a few months would tell you that coin was minted decades before Constantine. I would suggest getting a book or two, read it, go to coin shows where you can see real ancients in person, attend coin clubs where you can learns tons of stuff, maybe even read threads here and maybe subscribe to some Yahoo newsgroups on ancient coins. lots of resources now for young collectors. Most shops like the one you listed are for people who do not have much knowledge and want a curiousity for the sake of it, not serious collectors. Not trying to impune the shop, but honestly there just aren&#039;t enough ancient collectors around any one area to have serious ancient stores in most locales.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Go to Doug Smith&#039;s website too! Great stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
