<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pprp, post: 7418955, member: 94602&quot;]I was trying to say that the possibility of having someone coming up with a photofile of stolen objects from the museum of xyzburg or from a private collection is zero, because (1) the coin is of a low collectable value so it was propably never photographed and (2) the metal value is so low to make it a huge crime.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1970 unesco convention pardons items that were illegally excavated not the stolen ones. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you manage to find an Arcadius in the Helbing plates let me know.</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking at the coin itself and letting aside the provenance, as I wrote there are some marks around the edge that could point to a prior mount. Dealers do not describe such marks and pretend to include them in a VF grading and people get surprises from NGC. The 15% gross profit (130 euros or so) which will be then taxed does not justify the dealer&#039;s effort to buy, catalog, list the coin, pay a commission to the platform shop, send you scans and even offer you a 5% discount for a newly listed item.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
