<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1260752, member: 5233&quot;]Over the years I have had discussions with several different collectors about the ethics of collecting...specially is it ethical to collect all coins?&nbsp; By that, I mean...are the history of some coins so vile that they should not be collected?&nbsp; I personally don&#039;t think so.&nbsp; I think that history should be preserved so we don&#039;t allow the problems of the past to pollute the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>I recently read a thread here that sparked this thought once again.&nbsp; The thread concerned an advertisement selling WTC recovered ASEs.&nbsp; That discussion was more about the timing, and content of the ad itself...not so much about the coins.&nbsp; Although some discussion about the coins occurred.&nbsp; So, what I want to know is...do you feel that collecting certain coins is ethically off limits?&nbsp; In your opinion, is something wrong with someone seeking out these WTC coins and paying a premium for them?&nbsp; Is collecting coins from &quot;evil empires&quot; something we shouldn&#039;t do (ex: Nazi Germany or USSR, ect.)?&nbsp; What are your thoughts on this?</p><p><br /></p><p>I would really like to hear your opinions on this topic.&nbsp; However, please don&#039;t allow this thread to become heated and turn into a flame war.&nbsp; I know topics like this can become heated.&nbsp; I would prefer not to lock my own thread.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
