David123 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Hi everyone! My name is David and I am living close to Brussels in Belgium... (actually, everything is close to Brussels in Belgium ) I am brand new in coin collecting but I am quite interested in ancient coin... I actually have no idea if these coins are the most expensive... I do not want to spend my money all at once for one coin... (at least not at the beginning)... So I will have to figure out how to organize myself in the buying process... Seems that I can get lots of good info in this forum... If anyone has any advice... David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccg Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Welcome! There's a number of ancient collectors here who can help guide you. I think there's a topic thread right now about good books for a beginner to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arminius Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Welcome David ! If you collect ancients try to find your personal balance by visiting as much dealers, shows and sales as you can. Interesting, low value but affordable stuff will be in bargain lots and so called "junk boxes". More beautiful, expensive and valuable material is available nearly everywhere. Start with the cheap material but save a certain percentage of your budget for the better material. After a while you will find your own way and collecting focus(es).
