<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 7787548, member: 110350"]I don't understand your edit: you still say that <u>every</u> Roman Republic coin is at risk of seizure, and that's simply not true. It's only Roman Republican coins issed before 211 BCE, i.e. before the denarius was first issued, that are at risk under those regulations. The vast majority of Roman Republican coins, issued during the period of nearly 200 years after 211 BCE but before the end of the Republic, are not presently at risk. The same is true, of course, of Imperial coins. Although they would all be at risk if the proposed new MOU with Italy, agreed to by the previous administration last year, is ever fully implemented: as reported, it would eliminate that cutoff date going forward (subject to the 10-year exception discussed above, as well as the pre-designation export exception of Section 2606(b)(2)(B)). In other words, it would be as bad as the new MOU with Turkey.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
