<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ByzantiumBabe, post: 7275831, member: 118394&quot;]There is a lot of misinformation and fear mongering being circulated by some concerning the legal acquisition and legal ownership of certain coin types. Not to mention some actually suggesting &quot;coins already in your possession&quot; are somehow not legal. </p><p><br /></p><p>Likewise, some prominent institutions, now collaborating with restrictive government regulations (for their own self-interest), are not helping the situation nor advocating for collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p>The entire ancient coin collecting community needs to get on the same page.</p><p><br /></p><p>Millions and millions of extant ancient Greek, Roman, Persian, Indo-Greek, Byzantine, Asia Minor, Asian, North African, Spanish, etc, etc and Medieval coins are unprovenanced and likely may never be. </p><p><br /></p><p>Many reputable and experienced Dealers can help you determine how to legally acquired, legally import and legally owned using a variety of legal means and legal methods. Some may choose not to be helpful (their right), and yes, some are finding it a way to boost profits. However, there are many reputable and experienced Dealers in the States that can help to acquire unprovenanced coins, based on a review of your interest and the specific coins themselves, perhaps with a small premium.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
