[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2277574, member: 71510"]I was at the auction house last weekend that sold the bank bag and spoke to some of the folks there during preview day. Evidently the "expert" that bought the 1000 coin bank bag was very disappointed and did what he could to try and get his money back from an "as is where is" auction house. He basically gambled and lost $9000.00 plus the auction premium in one shot. It was - in fact - 1000 Ikes (no idea if all were clad - but nonetheless it sounds like most - if not all - were clad). I was utterly amazed at the bidding war between several people in that place. Up to $6000 there were still several people in the running. After that it became a bidding war with someone online and the final buyer. My heart sunk with every increasing bid! Once again, thank you math![/QUOTE]
