<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Finn235, post: 4670916, member: 98035&quot;]It&#039;s fascinating the types of opinions one will run into once you stray outside of collector circles. Start posting ancient coins on other sites, and you&#039;ll get pelted with all sorts of colorful accusations from the anti-collector crowd.</p><p><br /></p><p>I once saw a Redditor get called a destroyer of cultural heritage for sharing a rather ordinary Marcus Aurelius denarius that they bought online. People were saying things like, &quot;If you had any respect, you would buy the replicas and leave the real thing to the experts.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Another time, I observed some impressive mental gymnastics as someone argued over a posting of a Julian II / Vota AE3 that was dug up by someone ploughing their own field. I pointed out that it is about as common as common coins go, to which the self-identified archeology student replied that the OP probably just destroyed evidence of an ancient road that once ran across his farm.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just can&#039;t win with some people.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
