<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AncientJoe, post: 3767219, member: 44357&quot;]There has been a tremendous amount of electrum coming out since the 2011 Lanz auction so prices have dropped significantly but, even then, Lanz estimating that hekte at 15K Eur in 2011 is absurd.</p><p><br /></p><p>My guess is it should actually have been estimated at and hammered at <i><b>1500 Eur, </b></i>and that it was just a typo in the cataloging/data input. This isn&#039;t a particularly rare type and they never sell for that much.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s worth taking auction records with a grain of salt at times: every coin needs to be individually assessed and put in the proper context (i.e. was an oil sheikh involved, could there be a mistyping, did it actually sell).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
