<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 892574, member: 8959&quot;]In my opinion, provenance does add some appeal to a particular coin, specially if the provenance if from someone like John Q. Adams. I do in fact own some german state minor coins which were part of his collection. I also own some roman coins from the Vermeule collection, and a few U.S coins from the Norweb collection. However, provenance is only an added appeal factor to a coin - If I do not like the coin on its own merits, be they its&nbsp; beauty, or historical relevance, then its provenance is of no relevance to me. </p><p>As an added note, what I do find very appealing are coins found whilst detecting: regardless of their condition, it is an incredible feeling to retrieve a coin from the ground which was last touched by a human hand 2000 years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
