<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 4986554, member: 87200&quot;]As a third grader, I read all of the history I could starting with the World Book Encyclopedia (loved the section on the Roman Empire) also read the Time-Life series great ages of man books which my folks subscribed too. The Imperial Rome book was excellent, especially for an 8-year old. By 4th grade I was on to Gibbon, and got my first coin in 5th grade (Gordian antoninianus) from the local coin shop. I couldn&#039;t believe you could actually hold a piece of metal used by a citizen or soldiers from the third century.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://pictures.abebooks.com/isbn/9780809403424-us.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
