[QUOTE="ratio411, post: 1311392, member: 26729"]Someone on another board that was lucky enough to win some of these coins posted the info after it was over, and I thought you might like to see... The seller was the family of a deceased collector, and they didn't even know he had a collection. They were clearing out his house, and found the collection under his bed. Each coin was in it's own little envelope. Personally, I think the collection would have sold for much more if they had the coins graded, or went through a better auction venue. Some of the bidders got some really great deals. Scroll down and check out the Pilgrim... GORGEOUS! It sold for less than 70 bux! Looks like an MS66 coin. If you like very early US coinage, and seated coinage, be sure to have a look.
