[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1502364, member: 22585"]When silver was around $40/oz last year, I decided to sell my entire collection of Canadian half dollars. I have been regretting it ever since. Obviously not because of the precious metal, since I I bought them when silver was $12/oz, but because I really liked them. Canada produces some beautiful proof-like strikes and designs. So, I decided to start keeping an eye out for some nice toners. Well last week, it happened. There were 9 separate auctions with a toned half dollar. I was outbid on the first one. The seller did themselves a HUGE disservice by having every auction end at the exact same time, down to the second. I think that really helped me win the remaining 8. Although, I was shocked no one sniped them. Especially since I put in $15 bids for each one. When the dust settled, they ended up costing me about $12 each, delivered. I am very pleased to say the least.
