I will have to look at the coin when I get it. One of the members here mentioned about a clash. What are the letters on the obverse? There are...
Looks like a type of round. Where did you get it? There is no monetary value listed on it.
I also thought that the possibility is that they are just incrementing up to a max they are willing to pay. They may bid a few times than give up.
As someone mentioned, it exposes knowledge of the lot the bidder may have that others do not. I overlooked the 1866 but someone else probably didn't.
Yes, I noticed that, you were talking about from the seller's point of view. I would think that sniping would be good since it drives up the...
No matter, they have the same value although it is good to know the type. The small 5 is the rare one and know it isn't that one by the pics in...
You see the line going diagonally across the brim of the hat? One diagonal on the face? I thought I saw a TS. I will have to get the coin and...

But even if you were slugging it out and two people snipe their high bids, you still lose but waste your time. I don't think that there is any...
I know what you mean, I place a max bid and people do that to me to. They seem to get the coin or lot for a little more than my max bid. With...
I was also notified by someone that the 3 cent nickel has a die clash error. I can see the "ST" on the face of her and lines that look like a...
On to the counter-stamp. I did find a list of counter-stamps http://www.exonumia.com/art/cma.htm but can't find anything else about this stamp,...
This is certainly an educational lot.
Yes, I noticed that the counter-stamped coin is a flying eagle and there is no way to tell if the racketeer nickel even if it was genuine. I...
Yes, I didn't notice before but the Redbook has a pic of the dates, it is large 5.
It looks like the gold has worn off so you know it hasn't been done recently but there is no way to prove that it was original. Or is there?...
Thanks for pointing out the clash in the three cent piece. I see a TS in her face and believe I see a Roman numeral three on the obverse.
I punched in the wrong amount for this lot and I won the auction. After going through the Redbook, even at half the prices listed these coins...
I put the wrong bid in, I meant to bid $23 something and bid $32 something. I will probably keep it and sell off some of the coins I don't want...
I have a good idea, just buy what you want. It's $10, not like you are going to lose much. Just buy a coin you want on Ebay with a really bad...
