Because it had been exhibited in NY the Antiquities team from the NY DA's office tracked it down (I had to read a lot to figure out why the initial press release came from NY).
It sure would be nice if so called 'experts' only spoke of things they actually understand, instead of continuing to promote these ignorant myths they have created to fill in their massive blanks of 'understanding.' Bottom line? Having a degree, or any other credential for that matter, does not make you smart.
What a GREAT news !! It would be interesting who were criminals involved and "owners"...
Could not find out. My friend checked the Denver papers and the people who had it were not named.
Good story!
The Denver people might have brought it knowing what it was and turned it over.

or realized what they had and given it up

Great detective work to find these treasures!
So who had it from 2006-2023? I guess the investigators know but the "super rich" collector is a mystery.

Why such hatred of experts? I would understand if you would focus on the emergence of censorship “experts”, fact checkers and related hacks.
No hatred involved. Self appointed experts bring no real value, hence the pointlessness of their existence.
