Beginner 'Ancient Type Set'- Your Opinions?

I considered this, and it's a good idea, but it's also very much in "don't come cheap" territory; IIRC even the barely legible examples get three-digit prices.

(This also applies to most of the rest of "early post-Roman coins of Europe", with the caveat that many of the others are gold and consequently even rarer.)

...To be honest, if we start subdividing India at the same level as how we're subdividing Europe (which isn't that bad of an idea, admittedly), we'd end up with at least a dozen entries just from India alone.
I definitely agree about the Burmese coins, however; they're a thing unto itself. Rare, though.

I was mostly thinking of Bosporus as Greek. In some cases the line between "Greek" and "Roman provincial" is murky; Bosporus might be one.
I don't recall enough about Cappadocia to understand why it would require singling out. I've done a general assessment of many of the para-Greek and para-Roman states in this thread; IIRC most of them only have a handful of known coins total.

I remember more than 10 years ago there was a founding member of the Louisville Coin Club from 1945 when it started and he said to me he always wanted a set of coins from each year but it was too much work to be sure of the years of ancient coins. That would be something if you could document and be sure of each coin and you have the whole planet to choose from. Modern coins you can get creative and really vary where they were from and really ancient you have to be lucky with a known event to be sure of the date. Always wondered if anyone ever tried that.

@pep, @tdz, and I have at least partial OFEY collections.

@louisvillekyshop I did make a set like that, however not every year, but for every century! here it is: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/go...tury.372117/

I like the century idea as well.

You could tell a lot of world history with one coin per century from around the world.

Exactly what tzediemia said!

Bookmark worthy, for sure. Thanks!
