I general, just be nice to each other :)

Well, you can always start small :) A couple of these are only $14. It's doable to collect many Constantinian-era or tetrarchy-era emperors on even a modest budget.
I don’t have that sort of budget at all (I’m on disability income, which doesn’t pay enough for my survival so I’m basically using up part of my brothers income too); chronic illness sucks, put I’m happily looking at the pictures online :)

If you like #AncientCoins, particularly #Roman / #AncientRome I have written about a few on my site: https://coinofnote.com/tag/rome/ (and many from other empires or more modern as well) which should also give you some reading material, no purchase needed :) And those hashtags, along with things like #numismatics and @numismatics should find you some more as well. All the best.
Thank you
Well in that case I shall post more coins for you to enjoy 🙂 I might also do a raffle or something, for chance to win a coin.
