[QUOTE="Dimedude2, post: 2699334, member: 17539"]Well, I went to the auction today and it was entertaining and interesting. The auctions included over graded raw coins and in my opinion second hand like stuff. Many silver dollars were cleaned or whizzed. Some results from the auction: Silver 1oz rounds went from $26 to $45 2009 4 coin presidential dollar set ANACS PF70 went for $17 Two good condition Barbers 50 cent for $26 3 unc 1951 Franklins went for $51 1996 proof eagle went for $58 common Silver eagles for $32 and $40 1882s Morgan dollar NGC M63 for $58 1926s Peace dollar maybe in ms63 for $140 2014 Baseball HOF ANACS ms70 for $85 2014 Baseball HOF ANACS p70 for $125 1830 bust half vf30 for $130 Many common circulated or AU Morgans were auctioned off for 50 percent above gray sheet bid. It makes me wonder if a) bidders are happy and just want to win without considering value or b) the coin collecting hobby is far from extinct. Also, I was shocked how much folks bid on silver rounds knowing that the value is the silver content. I guess there is genuine passion for Pandas, Koalas, Star Trek and Disney. I think I am better off going to the local dealer or a show.[/QUOTE]
