<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kirispupis, post: 7787565, member: 118780&quot;]This honestly seems a bit fishy to me: a group advocating the free trade of antique coins brings a group of coins into the US and - lo and behold - the coins are confiscated. That seems very convenient so they could trigger a lawsuit, and my suspicion is they achieved the reaction from customs that they desired.</p><p><br /></p><p>As already mentioned here, if you buy the coin from any reputable international seller they&#039;ll include export license information. I&#039;ve purchased about 70 coins from Europe in the last year and had issues with none of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can certainly see that if you bring a small hoard of ancient coins in the US without any information on where you obtained them, customs will be alarmed. The lesson I believe is that if you do buy coins in person in Europe, make sure the dealer provides you the proper export paperwork, or just have them Fedex the coins for when you return to the States.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
