Since that is the case, my maximum bid on it is 1100 EUR, so please outbid me.

 

I seen AV Mohurs from him graded MS-65 fetch $800 Baldwins auction.

 

Regardless of how much they go for at other auctions, I would really appreciate it if somebody bid 1200 EUR for this one, both because I only noticed some strange redness on both the obverse and reverse after putting in a bid for it, and even more importantly, because I want to increase my maximum bids on the coins I want the most from this auction.

I have decided to bid on one coin at the Baldwin's Islamic Coin Auction today.

 

The auction should start in a few minutes.

 

Saxon


Norman


Civil War


Patterns


Anything else British related that I haven't covered

 

I won two.

 

Which ones?

 

The first coin is a Qajar Gold Toman of Fath-Ali Shah (minted in 1815), while the second one is an Ottoman Gold Sultani of Ahmed I (minted in Egypt in either 1604 or 1605).

 

I also plan to buy one of the unsold lots.

 

1603 is his accession date.

 

I assume you have won coins with them by commission bid? I won the second coin by personally bidding on it, and have already paid the invoice, but for the first one I put in a commission bid before the auction, but I still haven't received anything, so how long does it usually take?

 

2-5 days.

 

Okay, thank you, I was bit worried, since I have never bid by commission before and haven't even received a confirmation e-mail stating that I won the lot yet.

 

And what about the unsold lot I am interested in? Will it be put up normally for sale in the coming days? Or do I have to contact them by email about it?
