<p>[QUOTE="jules clay, post: 5525204, member: 117753"]Whoa there! There's a larger issue here - whether the coin can legally be imported into the US. You and your dealer need to familiarize with the relevant Memoranda of Understanding controlling the import of cultural property into the US. Prior to 2021, your Marcus Agrippa would be okay for import because coins from Italy struck after 211BC were kosher. The Memorandum with Italy was up for renewal in January 2021 with a proposal that the updated agreement would restrict importation of Italian coins struck through the period of the Empire (and perhaps later - I'm not sure) unless provenance could be proven. Whether this new agreement was put into effect I'm not sure - I just haven't had any reason to track it. But you need to be aware of this matter and proceed cautiously.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
