[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1598584, member: 15929"]Hmmm. This $17 coin has been bid up to $69 + $4 shipping with a little over 6 hours to go? As a side note to the OP, one thing which should never ever be done: Start a thread on an active auction listing. Doing so just runs the bidding up and could be interpreted as spam as the more folks that post "positively" about the coin, the more assured the bidders get in wanting it. For me, the ONLY thing the coin has going for it is the toning as it's sporting some fairly obvious and grade limiting hits. It's also in an NGC slab. As the thread starts out, that toning has been questioned but since the seller is a well known fellow, the confidence level is high and as such, the bidding is getting "spirited". As for the toning itself, it only means that the coin has been stuck away in something which will allow the coin to tone. Maybe an album, maybe a manila 2x2. Other than that, its just another common Kennedy Half with an average to below average grade. Question: Whomever ends up with this coin, will [I][B]t[B]h[/B]ey [/B][/I]be able to resell it, if the need arises, for anywhere near what its currently bid up to? Question: Is the current bid the result of the coin being posted here?[/QUOTE]
