<p>[QUOTE=&quot;panzerman, post: 2384994, member: 77704&quot;]In a lot of cases its a bidding war between two collectors with deep pockets. Sometimes, however there is a once in a lifetime dream coin like that Roman 8 Aurei from Maxentius, where price got up to 1.6 million. If, I am sure all of us on this site (if we were Billionaires) ha ha! would add such a beautifull piece to our collection. Money is boring in bank accounts, much nicer in coins. But, I have seen people bid ridiculous amts on common coins, no sense! Good example a Kushan AV Dinar of Vasu Devu I in EF, estimate 800US price realized 9800US! Remember also, there are a LOT of people that have tons of $, but little knowledge on prices.</p><p>John</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: It seems prices always are higher when really important collections are sold at auction, Triton XIX good ex.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
