    I don't disagree with the comments that his actions have cast aspersions on his grandmother, but his assumptions are not all without merit. I noted this quote: "A couple of the objects came with receipts, but Tsirogiannis realised their links to known Greek dealers of illicit antiquities in the 1950s and 1960s. “So this alerted me even more for him to repatriate them immediately,” he said"

    Exactly! So good to see coins and artifacts gathering dust in museums, never to be seen or enjoyed again.

    Coin collecting is as old as coins.

    Great thread and wonderful coins. Really hard to pick, I have so many coins I love. But if I had to pick one ancient, it would be my Alexander III gold stater. I love it because of both the period and its beauty.
