[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4000788, member: 112"]Not even close ! Bidding fever has been known to strike even those who are supposed to know what they are doing. And then there are always a few even at the big auctions that simply don't know what they're doing. So if one of them is bidding on a particular coin, you can bet money it's gonna go for more than it's worth. And if 2 of them are bidding on the same coin - best to stand back so ya don't get run over ! People who actually know what coins are really worth, they're the ones who stop bidding ;) Now I will grant ya, there are those rare occasions, and rare has a very specific and well defined meaning when I use it, that there will be somebody who knows something about a specific coin and recognizes it - that nobody else sees, or else simply missed. And those can go for more other bidders think they should - but it's only because there's something they don't know. The true value of a coin is what an educated/knowledgeable buyer will pay for it. Not what just any buyer will pay for it ;)[/QUOTE]
