<p>[QUOTE="Carausius, post: 3156186, member: 76440"]The loss is disappointing, though likely not unexpected. Courts interpret laws, they don't write them. We need good laws. I have suggested at ACCG meetings that a legislative solution would be our best path. Unfortunately, lobbying legislation requires funding that the ACCG does not possess. Join the ACCG and/or make a contribution today. This fight requires your help. If you have a relationship with a U.S legislator, discuss this with him/her or maybe put them in touch with Peter Tompa (if he agrees). </p><p><br /></p><p>Second, I've often touted my provenance hunting and encouraged others to curate their collections in a manner that preserves provenance information. This court decision highlights the need to maintain records and provenance info WITH THE COIN for the benefit of future collectors. It doesn't help to have a database that no one can access when you're gone. Print the information and store it with the coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
