[QUOTE="icerain, post: 2688746, member: 34514"]Welcome to the dark side. There are plenty of coins to choose from. LRB (Late Roman Bronze) coins can be had for pretty cheap i.e.. the Constantine that was mentioned. Another option is Byzantine coins, a lot of them can be had for relatively cheap although the condition won't be the best and some don't consider them true ancients. Or if you really want you can up the budget a bit and pick up a silver denarius. Common denarius coins can be had for $40-$50 in really good condition too. $40-$50 can also get a decent Greek coin, there are lots of options out there. And if you really want to go into the obscure coins try coins from Elymais and Nabataea. These would be hard to ID but we got a few experts here to help. Most important of all, have fun and don't forget to post your first purchase.[/QUOTE]
