CULTURAL PROPERTY ADVISORY COMMITTEE REVIEWING COIN BAN

Dave Kellogg writes: "You may know that Cyprus is the most recent
country to add coins to its cultural property list, and the U.S.
Cultural Property Advisory Committee is currently reviewing their
request.  Obviously, coins present a completely different situation
from antiquities and do not belong in the same Agreement.

"Any readers interested in collecting ancient coins are encouraged
to write the Committee expressing their views.  The Ancient Coin
Collectors Guild (ACCG) has led the efforts to represent coin collectors
and have prepared sample letters to help individuals get started.
The following link provides an easy to use online fax service.

"However, replies must be received by the Committee by Monday, Feb. 6.
That doesn't give us much time!  I wish we could put this note in BOLD
print; this topic is crucial to the continuance of our hobby as it
relates to ancient coins.  See http://accg.us "
