[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 2793566, member: 8959"][SIZE=5]I followed the auction but there was only one lot I was really interested in:[/SIZE] [ATTACH=full]649563[/ATTACH] [SIZE=5]Great condition even if a little off-center. Scarce anyway you look at it and a lovely coin. I would have bid over the top bidder, at least reasonably beyond what it finally hammered at. The only reason I did not bid is that I am already waiting for a coin to arrive from the last Leu auction (also located in Switzerland), and I first want to see what kind of import duty will be charged at german customs. Yep, Switzerland not being part of the EU Customs Union means duty ranging between 7% and 19 % may be due. The actual amount may depend on the mood of the customs agent (per Leu's own words...) Since paying 19% on top of Nomo's 18,5 % would not be cool, I first want to see how my purchase at Leu goes before I buy again in Swiss auctions. So you [/SIZE][SIZE=4]could[/SIZE][SIZE=5] say this is one that got away. wait and see....[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
