Hello,

My name is Greg and I am retired and live in the South West of England. I am a new member of the forum and as a complete beginner at collecting coins I would be grateful for advice and answers to some questions.

The coins I am most interested in would be from the Roman period and up to the Victorian era. I would like buy and sell online as a hobby and would like to know the best way to get started on a budget?

I already have a selection of various coins that I have inherited over the years and would like to sell them so I can purchase more coins. My problem is that most of the coins I need to identify. Can anyone tell me what is the best way to search and identify these coins using the internet?

What is the best way to buy coins online? Would ebay be worth a look or can someone recommend other online auctions or online sellers?

Finally, could anybody suggest an online coin inventory software I could use to keep track of my collection?

Thanks in anticipation.

Best regards,
Greg
