Anyone watching the live ANA auctions?

    Interesting stuff. They list the numismedia price along with each item up for bidding. Nothing is going for anything near the listed prices. These items would probably do better at teletrade. Fun to watch. I missed the copper.

    I had an account, but looks like you can register for free.

    Quality stuff is selling very strong. I had bids for 50-75% ABOVE PCGS guide and lost all seven lots, many with me as the immediate underbidder. Very frustrating.

    Yep although I just took a break from there because of the dreary Wash quarters

    not sure which lots you're looking at that went cheap. I bid on roughly 20 items so far and was only able to win one of them! I think the prices have been quite strong.

    Someone to grieve with! I hope MAYBE I can score something in the paper section tomorrow that I've been looking at, but my hopes aren't high...
    I thought I was going to win my lots with my bids and not even reach the full bid, but I was mistaken :(

    Was initially watching the MS and PR mercs. Didn't say cheap - just below the numismedia prices they provide with each lot. Hope those that are bidding have better luck.

    That makes some sense. Generics tend to not be so strong, though some really high grade proofs and business strikes or premium for the grade stuff would have done well probably.
