<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2601470, member: 19463"]We have had this discussion before and I know members of this list disagree on the propriety of discussing sales in progress when some of our number may have their eyes on the coins in question. In this case, there are a couple coins I would not mind having but they are already over $100,000 so I'm out. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie77" alt=":pompous:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>In all honesty, if someone were to be giving me $100,000 that I had to spend in this sale, I'd buy the 14 lots that make up the AK collection and as many of the large lots at the end of the sale as I could with my change. At my age now, I could stop shopping for coins altogether and spend my remaining time cataloging and studying these things that the big dogs don't even think are worthy of individual lotting. It is a sad state of affairs when coins that should sell for over a thousand individually get tossed out in a large lot. There are a few in this group. I will be interested in seeing who buys them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
