<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Parthicus, post: 22660012, member: 81887&quot;]Just to add to the stupidity, many of the coins in that photo are not even ancient!&nbsp; The gloved hand is holding what looks like a medieval Venetian coin (or one of the many that imitated the Venetians), and another Venetian-style is also visible on the right.&nbsp; Even worse, on the bottom of the photo, there&#039;s a copper 10 centesimi from the 1890s, and a silver 500 lire of the type that was issued from 1958 to 2001!&nbsp; So 2001 is now considered &quot;ancient&quot; and coins from that time are &quot;part of Italian heritage&quot; that can&#039;t be allowed to leave the confines of Italy without irreparable damage to the culture?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
