Article Abstract:
Coin colleting not only provides a rich source for learning history, but surprisingly what seems to be rare coins are not and they are often very reasonably priced. A coin in fine condition from 480-400 BC was offered for $50, and a coin from 200 BC with an image of Cleopatra, was only $40.
