Ancient Coins

There are some superb photographs of ancient coins at HobbyBlog, together with much useful background information on these miniature works of art. It is possible to acquire some ancient coins for very little expense. Over the years I have purchased a few coins from Guy Clark, a reputable and fair dealer. In his Bargain Boxes he sells Greek and Roman coins for as little as five dollars each. Holding one of these coins in your hand brings the ancient world to life in a way that books do not.
