<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 6407943, member: 110350&quot;]What&#039;s the matter, [USER=91461]@Ryro[/USER], did you go to Harvard or something? I&#039;ll have you know that although I have degrees from both institutions, I went to Yale first and Yale has my primary loyalty. When I was an undergraduate there, given the eccentric child I was, I spent an inordinate amount of time, when I wasn&#039;t exploring the stacks of the library, exploring the basements and even the steam tunnels with a group of like-minded friends. And I can tell you that they don&#039;t leak!</p><p><br /></p><p>Furthermore, for those of you who like to make the easy assumption that &quot;oh, it&#039;s an institution, so of course they relegate their coin collection to the basement,&quot; the 120,000-object Yale numismatic collection -- including the coins from Dura Europos -- is actually kept in the Pratt Study Room for Numismatics in the very fantastic Yale Art Gallery. See <a href="https://artgallery.yale.edu/numismatics-room" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://artgallery.yale.edu/numismatics-room" rel="nofollow">https://artgallery.yale.edu/numismatics-room</a>. If any of you ever happens to pass through New Haven, the Art Gallery is very much worth a visit -- arguably the best museum between New York and Boston.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
