<p>[QUOTE="Gallienus, post: 4120402, member: 42034"]Thanks. CNG coins are very hard for me to get. I have an Ungood experience at their recent Triton sale this past January. I used either their App or the website to bid as they charge an extra 5% for phone bidding. Basically I had the high bid on a coin well prior to the sale but was out bid at the live auction. Using their website, I bid again and was outbid at 5.5K. I really didn't want to go to 6K but then I decided to and bid. However during my bid, it didn't post: they closed the lot and gave it to the other bidder at 5.5K. I was a bit surprised as I was in the middle of actively bidding on the piece and I did click the 6K bid button. There was no warning or anything. I guess these "cheap coins" (<10K), they don't worry about so much as they've many 6 figure pieces?</p><p><br /></p><p>My solidus came from a European auction (Leu Numismatik) so no slab of course.
