Mitchell, the lawyer and archaeological group secretary, said in an email that more medallions might be coming back to Anguilla: “We have no idea how many medallions were removed and not returned to us. Mr. Stevens's group did return several hundred some years ago after taking them to the U.S.A. We were given to understand at the time that they were all the medallions. We now know different."
