John, if that's how you feel, you should start a fund raising operation to pay the guy a fair market price for his plate and donate it to the museum. Lots of railfans and civil war frreaks would probably chip in ten bucks apiece, and you can reach them easily through the internet. Perhaps you could get the sale suspended while you work out the details. But for YOU to say that HE should make a huge financial sacrifice is ridiculous. He's not selling body parts here, but an artifact.
