The New York Times, in a story on the Iraqi museum, reports tomorrow that “... directors have managed to recover 4,000 missing pieces, among them gems, Islamic coins and carved stones.”
It has been firmly established that there were no coins in the 15,000 stolen items. So how were coins recovered?
...recovery picked up as word spread that rewards were offered for items returned.
I'm glad that the museum is acquiring more coins for its collection. I am irritated that the Times continues to imply that coins were looted from the museum.
