[QUOTE="Gallienus, post: 24483357, member: 42034"]A number of prominent numismatists I talked to questioned the ethics of their not coming to an arrangement with me. I've would've been quite happy with a store credit for example. In your vein, Roma also auctioned an intact Roman Aes Signatum bronze brick or currency bar. I believe they merely listed the province as "from an old European collection". While not sure, I think these things are quite rare and protected historical artifacts. My memory is incomplete here but I always thought that was questionable on their part. Also, I recall {but don't have proof} that they were involved in the resale of the Macedonian /Alexander dekadrachms which were illegally recovered off the coast of the Gaza strip. Thus Sir Richard Beale has been on the radar for a long time. Maybe this latest thing was just the tip of the iceberg?[/QUOTE]
