I would rather items be in a museum if they are of interest or cultural significance to the region.. the finder/land owner still gets fair market price paid by the museum/gov't - and more people get to see and enjoy the artifact. If the item is not of interest to the museum (we already have 20 of those coins - why would we want to buy more?) then it can be sold to private collections. </p><p><br /></p><p>That is my understanding of how it works.. please correct me if I am wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
