<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 4292016, member: 19165&quot;]How bad do you want it? That&#039;s really the rule: if you really want it, and its a truly special coin, bid high or you will regret it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Let me give you an example. This coin is an 1810 Switzerland 5 Batzen, from Bern, graded NGC MS-66 DPL. I had the chance to buy this coin 3 times. The first was on Teletrade - normal coins of the type traded at the time for $150, so I put a very high bid of $250. I lost when it sold for $300. The second time it came up on Heritage a couple of years later. I learned my lesson and put a bid of $350... it sold for $700. Finally, I saw it one more time at the FUN show this year. The dealer wanted $1400. I wrote the check instantly, and have zero regrets. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1092510[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1092511[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
