<p>[QUOTE="7Calbrey, post: 1990447, member: 38412"]I think we need first to distinguish between the term " antique" in the realm of History as a well recognized science, and this same term " antique" in the course of Numismatics.What does modern means here, and what does it mean there. I mean conventionally as agreed by Historians or Numismatists. Of course there might be different views among Historians themselves, but they remain very close to the historic truth or course of events. For instance,Historians believe Modern Ages or Times began with the invention of Printing by Gutenberg. Other historians relate it to the discovery of America by Columbus . Some relate the same era known as " Renaissance" that preceded Modern Times to the Fall of the Byzantine Empire etc.., But notice that all these three events ( Gutenberg, Columbus, Byzantine Fall ) occurred in the same fifteenth century which paved the way to Renaissance and Modern Times. I hope I marked some idea..</p><p> Charles[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
