Normally, bids must be at least one bidding increment over the Current Bid. However, podium, fax, phone and mail bidders submit bids at various times without knowing the current bid and must be on-increment or at a half increment (called a Cut Bid). Any podium, fax, phone, or mail bids that do not conform to a full or half increment will be rounded up or down to the nearest full or half increment. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Internet bids are required only to bid the increment past the Current Bid, or more. Internet bids greater than one increment over the Current Bid can be any whole dollar amount. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;It is possible under several circumstances for winning bids to be between increments. It is also possible for an existing bid to be outbid by less than a full increment, sometimes by only $1. This usually happens when two bidders feel that a lot is worth about the same amount, but one places an off-increment bid. Generally when this happens, the Current Bid was much lower than the high secret maximum bid when the off-increment bidder placed his bid. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;For example: On Tuesday, you bid $1500 against Bidder A&#039;s Maximum Bid of $1000, raising Current Bid to $1100. Then on Thursday, Bidder B, seeing a Current Bid of $1100, guesses the final price and decides to bid $1501, outbidding your Maximum Bid by $1. You would now have to bid $1600 through Heritage Internet bidding or $1550 on Heritage Live (if available for the auction) to possibly win that lot. Next time, maybe you&#039;ll bid $1502 and outbid Bidder B by $1! </p><ul> <li><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#guidelines-increments" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#guidelines-increments" rel="nofollow">Bidding Guidelines and Bid Increments</a></li> <li>&nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#increments" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/ref/web-tips.zx#increments" rel="nofollow">How can I lose by less than an increment?</a></li> </ul><p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [h=4]Number of Bidders[/h] This number represents the number of individual bidders prior to the close of Internet bidding on each lot.

O-115, R.5.</b> Star 1 pierces the closed lower loop and a leaf is solidly joined to the left base of the D in UNITED. As always, the obverse has a small die chip below star 1, with a crack to stars 2 and 3, and another crack between stars 2 through 5 and the border. An additional crack joins stars 5 and 6. Another crack connects the tops of TY to stars 9 and 10. The reverse has a crack through the tops of MERICA. All of those die cracks are described in the Overton reference.</p><p>A dark toning line through stars 12 and 13 looks like a die crack. On the reverse, another dark toning line curves up from the lower left, and it also has the appearance of a die crack at first glance. There also appears to be a die crack from the border through the left side of the O in OF, with no mention in Overton.</p><p>This impressive specimen, from an old-time holding, is clearly the finest known. The fourth edition Overton census reads 40, 20, 15, 15, 15, and the finest auction appearance in the last decade is just AU58, one of only eight auction appearances better than VF25. The opportunity to bid on, and acquire, an MS62 example is unprecedented.</p><p>Slight central weakness is noted, especially on the eagle&#039;s leg. The surfaces are fully lustrous light gray with splashes of pale blue, gold, and rose toning, and the surfaces show only a few trivial handling marks. Census: 11 in 62, 18 finer (8/12), for all varieties. (#6052)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
