Returning Historical Artifacts -?
A few days ago when cleaning out a box in my closet, I came across some Korean Coins that I purchased from a fellow Soldier (in the military) some 30-odd years ago.
They were found with a Metal Detector at the old U.S. Military site formerly known as FOC South, located on Namsan, a short distance from Namsan Tower. This site is still there, identified (last time I saw) by an orange-colored antenna.
Although I could probably sell them for some profit, I decided that I would like to return them to the South Korean Government, hopefully, for displaying in one of their (Seoul) historical museums.
Could anybody provide me with internet links (in English) so that I may get started with possibly getting these historical Coins returned to the South Korean Government?
Any links, information, or advice is appreciated.
Sunny,
What a fantastic answer!
I never thought of this way for returning these ancient coins.
There’s also a currency museum (gov’tal):

as well as the National Folk’s Museum:
