<p>[QUOTE=&quot;pprp, post: 3228936, member: 94602&quot;]This &quot;hoard&quot; hit the market much earlier, the first ones were auctioned in June 2016 by CNG. Most probably this &quot;hoard&quot; is coming from Syria and I am puzzled of its contents as it seems to be containing archaic owls along with Starr IV-V and mass coinage. I haven&#039;t seen die matches between the auctioned pieces which would make some sense if the hoard was originally issued for trade reasons. </p><p><br /></p><p>If the numbers given here are true, we are talking about 400-500 kg of silver. How did this quantity pass through the borders and who is the consignor in all these auctions? Is it a group of persons consigning? It is evident that the &quot;hoard&quot; didn&#039;t arrive in the usual laundry gateway in Germany. So what happened? Did one person sell parts of the &quot;hoard&quot; to different auction houses and do the auction houses &quot;consign&quot; the coins to their own auctions to get the buyer&#039;s fee as well?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
