<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3913761, member: 19463"]I'm old fashioned. I believe provenance should be reserved for collections that included the coin and not a seller who handled the sale. That means we have BCD coins, John Quincy Adams coins and Dattari coins but not CNG or or Harlan Berk provenances. You can record it as bought from CNG but that is not a provenance. In some cases where dealers are also collectors it is hard to tell if the coin was in their collection or just from their stock.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
