<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Deacon Ray, post: 2526316, member: 81896&quot;]Thanks for posting this, Christian!</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some excellent points being made in this document. Below are a few of my favorite excerpts with the help of GOOGLE Translate (unedited):</p><p><br /></p><p><i>... Coins ran their purpose as means of payment following generally far around. Therefore, the stamping location is often not identical with the circulation, exploration or storage place, and it would be wrong to automatically connect to a specific origin of minting...</i></p><p><br /></p><p>And this one:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>... The reputable coin dealers also play an important role by ensuring that the coins that are centuries in private collections, will come to light and are not disposed of carelessly by the heirs of the collector...</i></p><p><br /></p><p>This one is my favorite:</p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>...State of origin is defined as &quot;one [state] in which the cultural property originated or who has such a close relationship with the heritage that he has placed it at the time of shipment as national treasures under protection&quot;...</i></p><p><br /></p><p>I interpret this to mean that the country of origin is not necessarily the place where the coin was minted but rather the place where the coin was used.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
