After being intimidated by Ancients my whole life by the depth of knowledge required in this endeavor, I decided to dip my toe in the water and would like your help as I try to assemble a collection of ancients. My collecting philosophy, like that of many others, is to just collect what I like. What I like is limited by what I know, which isn't much. I just think about my history classes and lessons as I was growing up and seek out those people and places that I grew up learning about. I would appreciate any and all thoughts and advice as I assemble my collection. Started today with some popular basics. I like lions.

THRACE. Chersonesus. Ca. 4th century BC. AR hemidrachm (13mm). NGC Choice XF. Persic standard, ca. 480-350 BC. Forepart of lion right, head reverted / Quadripartite incuse square, rosette and pellet in opposite recessed quadrants. McClean 4073.

Aesthetic here seems very modern... for a 2,400 year old coin. Use of empty space, symmetry/asymmetry, no lettering, communication solely through images and devices.
