Curio Bill Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 09/05/2008 9:57 pm My 8yr old daughter has been asking about coins (she wants a coin book for her birthday!) & I would like to get her a few inexpensive Roman coins that don't look worn to the point of being washers. Can you give me some specific coin suggestions on what Good Looking Roman coins to get for a Kid? And a source to get them from? Thanks, Bill. Report this Post to the Staff

Sir Ferrari Pillar of the Community United States 671 Posts	Posted 09/05/2008 10:07 pm Late bronze Roman coins of the 4th Century AD (300s) are very inexpensive (some can be found for $5 on ebay). Look for emperors like Constantius II, Constantine I, or Valens. Because these coins are so common, they are cheap, yet marvelous to look at! Report this Post to the Staff

It is very easy to get taken with fakes and lures of "gold found" if you don't know what you are doing. You can always post an ebay auction link here if you are not sure!

And work with her to get them cleaned up...then try identifying them. Will develop a stronger relationship. TheKid! Report this Post to the Staff
