<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1956341, member: 19463"]Do I not recall correctly that they gave their collection of non-US coins to the ANS in NYC making the Smithsonian a non-player to those of us interested in ancients? Last time I was there (2008) the coins on display all fit in a small closet sized room including a couple ancients and a handful of US that more or less said that there were coins but they didn't care about them. When I visited in the 1970's, the display was huge and very well laid out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
