You&#039;ll be in good company if you join.&nbsp; Also, your membersip fees will help fight the elitist, U.S. archaeological lobby whose initiatives threaten to (1) severely curtail our centuries-legal collecting activities, (2) put the financial burden of enforcing anti-looting laws on the U.S. government and taxpayers rather than source countries and (3) put U.S. small business coin dealers at a competetive disadvantage vs. European coin dealers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just follow the money people. These archaeologists need excavation permits from source countries. So, of course they support whatever stupidly broad MOU a source country proposes - otherwise the source country won&#039;t let them dig!&nbsp; If they don&#039;t get dig permits, they can&#039;t soak their patrons for money to fund the excavation and their paychecks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
