I spent alot of time collecting British Commonwealth coinage, in fact after starting with US and Mexican coins( I live in Arizona, near the border with Mexico) I went to collecting world coins and I favored British Commonwealth, earlier the better, especially the Straits Settlements and East India Co. Coins. Since then I have collected from all over, mostly, as I said, British Commonwealth, Russia, Asia, South and Central America etc.... untill I came to Roman Silver coins, bronze too, but that is my main focus now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I appreciate your help <b>shantheman</b> and the links from everyone else...
