[QUOTE="ambr0zie, post: 6547722, member: 80952"]I am too new in the ancient coins world so perhaps I am mistaking, but on the auctions I watch carefully I sometimes see abnormal things. Usually I watch a whole auction and even if I am not interested in certain coins, I like to "guess" the hammer price. In 90% of the cases I am correct or very close. But in some cases I am convinced the correct price is 20-25-30 EUR (bases on previous auctions) and the coin jumps to 80-100. What amazes me is the kind of situation where the same type of coin (same denomination, similar conservation) appears 2-3 times in the same auction. On one of them there's a big fight, then on the second, that would have the same appeal for the collector who wants it (and who lost the previous one) the price is much smaller. Beats me.[/QUOTE]
