<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 7787962, member: 110350&quot;]I would like to know what percentage of coins won at auction or purchased from mainstream dealers, imported from Europe to the USA with proper papers, this happens with. (I admit I wasn&#039;t thinking about Afghanistan, Yemen, etc. We&#039;ll have to see how things play out with Turkey.) Yes, it&#039;s theoretically possible, but I suspect that it does so in far, far less than 1% of cases. I think it&#039;s even more unlikely with Roman coins exported from Italy, given the need for an export permit.&nbsp; Same with ancient coins exported from Israel, Spain, etc. I&#039;d also like to know how often this has happened with ancient coins (particularly Roman coins) exported from the UK. So I really don&#039;t worry, and I think some people are being rather alarmist if this is their reason for never buying from European dealers or at European auctions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
