Lot of ancient coins from recent sales ending up in ruzzia

[I_v_a_n]

Unfortunately, it's not possible to get any answer from "good Russians" or their admirers on simple question: "What they are propose to do?".

Simply not to speak about a problem ("just take the thread down").... or nothing to do.... or may be the best: "lets doing business as usual" (with continuously murdered Ukrainians at the background, but who cares?).

Back to numismatics. From several dozens of ancient coins collectors in ruzzia (it's relatively small community active in internet) I've known only one person who declaired himself against the war. Almost all others supported.

I am very respecting and greating the Kunker's decision - because they simply understood from the very beginning that it's disgusting to cooperate with ruzzians during the war. There are no any logical reasons for such a decision from March 2022 and they still holds their position.

I am still wondering why other numismatic companies still working with them. For what?

And especially in poor regions, it's super easy to brainwash people. They have nothing, they basically belong to the government.

OMG! "Poor Russians" detected!

Most of them absolutely consciously go to kill Ukrainians for big money. Now the one-time payment upon signing a contract for military service is up to $50'000 (5 mln. roubles).

I appreciate everyone keeping this thread pretty much on track. With that said I do think it has run its course, so going to lock for a few days so other threads can spend time on the front page 🙂
