    In 1997 I was luck enough to hear Dr. Leo Mildenberg talk at Havard University
    he was billed as the "world's greatest expert on ancient greek coins".
    In the Q&A at the end of his talk, he was asked how he got to be
    the "world's greatest expert", his answer was "All the real experts have died!"
    Dr. Mildenberg passed away in 2001.

    He may have figured out where all experts come from!
