<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4515721, member: 26302&quot;]This is a problem sir. &quot;Ancient&quot; coins encompass such a HUGE variety it is very easy to get lost and give up. My suggestion is to grab a hold of something that interests you and read about it and get to know THOSE coins. Start small. Like a certain Greek city? Like a certain Roman emperor? Like religious imagery like the &quot;hand of God&quot; or portraits of Christ? For the latter I wrote an article on them that you may like:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://6be88a1c-6568-4deb-8cbe-aa9960825d12.filesusr.com/ugd/e7a338_d898ad37fc6444d6a6cde1b2c18beacc.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://6be88a1c-6568-4deb-8cbe-aa9960825d12.filesusr.com/ugd/e7a338_d898ad37fc6444d6a6cde1b2c18beacc.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://6be88a1c-6568-4deb-8cbe-aa9960825d12.filesusr.com/ugd/e7a338_d898ad37fc6444d6a6cde1b2c18beacc.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>No, I make no money if you read it, just suggesting a resource to see how you can narrow your focus. This is an article on 13 coin types that comprise a series. Narrowing yourself down and learn a small part will build up your confidence and get you started. There are other articles on our website you can choose instead.</p><p><br /></p><p>My mind was REELING when I started. Then I picked up on Persian coins, got a little confidence, started learning more, and here I am. I still get horribly, horribly lost on most Greek issues, since I have concentrated on other series. &quot;Greek&quot; is a MASSIVE undertaking, something only professionals and the most advanced collectors can hope to master.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, you aren&#039;t the only one overwhelmed. Need to know about Nabatean? Ask John. SS? Ask Doug. Each of us know a small part, which is why we band together to figure out something new.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
