The bidiots are at it again!

This coin is bringing what it would be if it was not holed.

I haven't verified it, but maybe it a rare Overton?

 

You would think with it being the holidays coins would not be bringing as much due to people being strapped for cash, for the holidays.

Today I saw another coin, a capped bust quarter, bring full numismedia price, and it was whizzed something awful.

I've noticed heavy "gunfire" from the snipers. There has been a ton of sniping early, so instead of waiting until the last minute to bid, I put my max in early.

I was outbid on two problem free CBH's today, the one I really wanted went for $80, which looked like the same thing I could get in a slab for $20 more.

 

Detecto, does it matter?

 

80$ to you might be a lot, to some it may be lunch money.

 

I need to unsubscribe to this thread.

 

Naw, It's a O-106 R1. Nothing special about. Just some over anxious bidders...

 

But it has a hole!

 

So much for unsubscribing, eh?

 

On coins such as this, the difference between what a problem-free coin might go for vs. a coin with issues can be a relatively small sum. The coin has about $12.50 in bullion value and might bring perhaps $100 or so if problem-free. This does not leave all that much wiggle room, dollar-wise, for an impaired piece. Additionally, the hole looks like it might be square and might be old and this, oddly enough, could drive interest since holed coins of this era should have square holes rather than round holes if they are contemporary holes.

 

You have an incredible grasp of the obvious

 

matlock..

 

Nice quote gbroke, you have quite the sense of humor. Well, it is almost 7 PM here in Vegas and time for me to be heading home and spend some time with my beautiful Chinese/American wife.

 

Does a bear poop in the woods? :devil:

 

Am I still subscribed to this thread? I'm serious, I'm heading home now. Maybe I will grace you all with my presence later.

 

Don't let the door hit ya...:devil:

 

WOW, now this is a cut and dry example!

There are a lot of people that don't like to deal with dealers. They think ebay is always cheaper - sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't. One of the reason I say do comparison shopping.

 

I like the new avatar, Detecto.
