[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 2023180, member: 29751"]Any dogmatic "split" you make is your personal opinion. It's like NGC defining modern as "post-1950" for USA coins, but as post-1970 for non-USA coins. Why? Your argument seems to suggest that the line be based on technology? "Ancient/hammered coins" vs. "Modern milled World coins". Then you have people who collect British coins where some are hammered and some are milled under one ruler. My point is that you can't make everyone happy, and people have differing ideas of what goes where. Heck, some ancient folks call anything after 1000 AD "modern".
