If they had named the hoard after the anonymous collector who put together the hoard, would there still be objections?</p><p><br /></p><p>As for me, I&#039;m glad the hoard exists. It allowed me to put together a high grade birth year set without having to pay thousands of dollars.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
