<p>[QUOTE="Dillan, post: 3704401, member: 90539"]I just read under Turkish Laws it is illegal to possess any antiquities such as coins ,carpets, statues ,etc. . If you happen to be a farmer there , and you find say a coin or buried statue on your property , it is supposed to be turned over to the nearest museum under Government control. Any person caught with these items in their possession face a serious length of time in jail. Any item that is older then 1 or 2 centuries fall under this Turkish law. Just thought some of you may be interested in knowing this especially if you are planning a trip to Turkey . They tell tourists or visitors not to purchase any items from the locals.
