<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1859326, member: 19463"]The previous lot had wear which means there are better ones out there. Remember that auction realizations mean nothing about the value of a coin but only what two bidders were willing to pay that day. If, tomorrow, a better coin with no smoothing is sold, the fact that the winner of this one doesn't want another could make the better coin go for 1/10th the price. Auctions don't have to make sense but they sure can make dollars.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
