<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 2103801, member: 27832&quot;]I happened across this BIN lot soon after it appeared this evening:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-4-U-S-Silver-Half-Dollars-dates-from-1869-1908-/231503967072?nma=true&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-4-U-S-Silver-Half-Dollars-dates-from-1869-1908-/231503967072?nma=true&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc" rel="nofollow">Lot of 4 U.S. Silver Half Dollars: dates from 1869 - 1908</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I spent the next few minutes dashing back and forth among eBay sold listings for the date, NumisMedia listings, and the large images, trying to figure out whether there was any way that that 1896-S Barber was worth <i>less</i> than the $290 BIN price all by itself. I had just about convinced myself that it was a sure thing, even if it turned out to be cleaned -- but someone else was a little more self-confident, and snatched it out from under me. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t been buying nearly as much over the last few months, mainly because my usual tactic of camping on new BIN listings hasn&#039;t been turning up anything worthwhile. I&#039;m feeling some pretty powerful regret about letting this one slip through my fingers. Maybe this will make it easier for me to move decisively the next time an opportunity comes up. I hope it doesn&#039;t make me <i>too</i> risk-happy...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
