<p>[QUOTE="arashpour, post: 3114000, member: 85830"]I totally agree with what you said but what I want to add is that many many countries specially in Asia have rules that altogether prohibits any dealing of antiquities including common coins. These countries often have mafia in government body that do under the table deals with outside countries they just want to keep the business in their hands and control it. For them they just don't want others (normal population) to be in this business. As for example you mentioned sure the coins with the dead body in Pompeii is very significant but after it was studied pictures taken and all studies done and published why those coins can not come into market and be sold?? What is the reason? if it was just for purpose of documentation now that documentation is done there is no reason for museum to want to keep these in their possession.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
