<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1497929, member: 26302&quot;]Yes, the Bulgarians make some good quality fakes.</p><p><br /></p><p>To Christian, the main problem with these laws, and I don&#039;t care if they are under UNESCO or not, is that Bulgaria cannot prove the coins actually came from there. If they can, its a normal theft case resolved through Interpol. However, they claim they own ALL coins ever minted in modern day Bulgaria, which we know is wrong. What if a coin was made in Bulgaria in 286 AD, but in 287 AD were traded to a traveling merchant and he took them to Cologne and spent them there. If the coins are found in Cologne today, Bulgaria still claims they own them. How is that fair? Coins were meant to be traded, and ancient roman coins are found in Sweden, India, China, all over asia, and all over Europe. Why does Bulgaria get to claim them simply because they were minted there 1800 years ago, (by culturally different inhabitants than live there today may I add)? Shouldn&#039;t the country where the coins are FOUND control them? How does Bulgaria PROVE the coins in Ireland were FOUND in Bulgaria and not found in Germany?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
