A while ago there was a thread &quot;New to ancients&quot; and I contributed this:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/new-to-ancients.300298/page-2#post-2806167" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/new-to-ancients.300298/page-2#post-2806167">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/new-to-ancients.300298/page-2#post-2806167</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The are many helpful collectors who have written and illustrated sites you will find interesting. If you go to the pages I recommend, you will find links to many good sites, including sale sites and educational sites.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been studying ancient coins since 1971 and still find them fascinating. They are not all about high grade and what they should cost, or minor varieties that might be worth much more. Ancient coins are actually interesting in their own right and no one will press you to buy that last rare date or avoid anything less than MS65. Make up your own mind what you like.</p><p><br /></p><p>One other suggestion. CoinTalk gives you the ability to look at old threads and search for keywords. If anything comes to mind, search on it, or just browse old threads, and you will learn a lot rapidly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
