[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 7427154, member: 110226"]I think the issue fundamentally is what you think the coin is worth to you. Much of the high bidding, in my opinion, is driven by bidders who have high priorities on specific coins. Now, add to that mix collectors/investors with lots of cash, and blast off! Many coins do hammer at or below their estimates, for a variety of reasons. However, some coins receive few or no bids because the vast majority of bidders do not recognize the coins' attributes or rarity. Yes, bronze coinage generally did not fare as well as silver or gold coinage, and I suppose that's just human nature, to a certain extent, drawn to "all that glitters". So, putting aside the wacko auction scene, are you happy with the lots that you acquired? I happy with the coins that I have acquired, but I must say that the pandemic and the state of the world has certainly tempered that happiness for me.[/QUOTE]
