I got my first ancient coin from a guy exactly 1 year ago and came to this forum to ask for help with it, making myself look like an idiot in the process.

Since then, I've gone through in excess of 300 coins and I'm looking for another 100 (my cleaning batch dried up months ago which is why I've been so inactive).

At the moment, I'm seeing more ancients go then come. got one on the bay right now which is proving mighty popular so wish me luck - perhaps ill be able to buy a new batch with the proceeds!

Very awesome! This site is amazing and filled with great people with great knowledge to pass long. Soon I hope to Venture into the world of Ancients...Been interested but locally everyone wants a TOn for what they have. Not knowing anything about them, I dont want to make a misguided purch ASE

My very first ancient Greek coin for my collection was a
gold stater of Philip 11of Macedon with the Apollo obverse, and the biga reverse. VF condition.

That was purchased from Spinks in London, in 1978, for three hundred and sixty pounds. I still have it.
I ALSO still have ALL of the polaroid pictures and purchase documentation to prove provenance.
