<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IBetASilverDollar, post: 2903292, member: 85251&quot;]Had my eyes on a seated quarter proof in today&#039;s stacks auction.&nbsp; It&#039;s current bid was $1,200 and I was willing to go to $1,600 + BP.&nbsp; I had the auction on in the background checking in from time to time as mine approached while doing some paperwork.&nbsp; Saw it coming up soon and of course the UPS guy comes in and rings the bell.&nbsp; I run over and sign for the package and run back to the computer to hear &quot;I have $1,200, who has 13?&quot;.&nbsp; So I think &quot;just in time&quot; and bid up to my $1,600 and win the lot.&nbsp; Then I see the proof I wanted pop up on my screen for bidding and instantly realize I just bid on the lot before it.&nbsp; LOL</p><p><br /></p><p>Both lots had start bids of $1,200.&nbsp; Just my luck.</p><p><br /></p><p>So please use this thread to cheer me up with stories of your biggest mess ups, or compliment how absolutely beautiful my new accidental 78-CC is and how you would have paid double for it easy.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Here it is, really is a nice coin but just a little annoyed from the circumstances it became mine.</p><p><br /></p><p>NGC MS64</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/0rvS23o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/U9KDIIv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
