<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2323234, member: 19463&quot;]The real problem here is the number of people who want &#039;an ancient&#039; but prefer something they have heard of rather than just any ruler.&nbsp; Until you give a price, we can not help a lot.&nbsp; The cheapest ancients include Constantine I who was the first Christian emperor and whose coins can be nice and cheap if a coin from the fourth century is OK. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]469983[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Next choice would be a silver denarius of a common but significant emperor like Trajan (below), Hadrian or Septimius Severus.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]469986[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Fans of slightly larger silver will be OK with a slightly lesser ruler like Philip I who issued double denarii or antoniniani.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]469988[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>For Greek, I&#039;d suggest a bronze of Alexander the Great unless your budget is good for silver.&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]469991[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]469990[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>That brings us back to the matter of budget.&nbsp; Pick a price and several people will have suggestions you should like.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
