There was a wedding set in Saturdays colonial acres auction for over a thousand, I don't recall exact price. There was also a 2007 rattle. Nice sets they should offer again. Very astute to buy several. 2007 seems to be a banner year for coins retaining or increasing in value. my favorite is the plasma coin! Sadly no such excitement these days in Canadian coins. Yingyang I love the thread on your personal collection. reread it from page 1, very inspiring. I miss threads like those, with people sharing their collection. It sparks interest in other coins of different years!

But prior shipping such expensive item, I would contact seller and re-confirmed with him, that he did see your description. Cause night be returned due to: "the item not as described". Btw, from the pictures for me the Looney looks very good, didn't notice the toning.

I didn't notice much on the pictures. So if the buyer skept description without reading, he will complain. As example I had for sale (still have) some silver coins with toning on edges. Listed it with the "Best Offer". All the buyers that submitted the offers didn't read properly about the toning, and when I responded to their offers with additional clarifications, they told "Thank you, no need". So it was CAD 50 worth coin.....with the CAD 800 it different...

thank you for info! Interesting to watch it. This is not really good time for auction to end. Will not be surprising, if will be sold for half of the market price.

The amount, that people willing to pay aka 'bid amount' has been increased from yesterday..very well.
Now it actually on the 'half of the market reasonable price'
Might be the Christmas period, the Family related values are strong, so the people will fight (via auction) for the set.

Ending an auction on Christmas eve or day seems like a good way to bring bottom dollar for one's items.

Couple of hundreds below the market price ... OMG!
Is this really low interest in the coins nowadays?
Or this is the holidays season, when people spend a lot (personal example) on the things that actually no really needed.
