<p>[QUOTE="Revello, post: 24657328, member: 103898"](Here I am talking to myself, lol) Some may wonder why I didn't post the alert earlier ... I would have had I known that the coins at auction were selling for such darn good prices. I didn't know until the auction started and my marked lots came up for auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>As soon as I saw the winning prices, I tried to hurriedly post a thread on CoinTalk in case anyone might see it who would be interested in high qualify proof Franklins (and Lincoln cents) and other coins. There were gold coins and Morgans, but I didn't monitor those or check out whether the winning bids on those lots were bargains. I was primarily interested in the higher grade Franklin halves. </p><p><br /></p><p>Wish I had been interested in the SMS sets they sold. For example, a full 1965 SMS set with each coin graded by NGC at MS-68 ... that sold for only $54 !!! Geez. The 1965 SMS Lincoln penny at MS-68 alone sells at auction for about $500 !! I revise my earlier entry about the "steal" of the auction. I definitely missed out on some huge bargains. </p><p><br /></p><p>fwiw - the 1966 SMS set, all graded at MS-68 by NGC, sold for $52, and the 1967 SMS set, all graded at MS-68 by NGC, sold for $72.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
