Did Well At Local Auction Saturday

I went to a local auction on Saturday. A single collection was being auctioned off in 340 lots. There were probably 40+ bidders that would come and go. I went about 1/2 hour early to examine some of the coins I might bid on. But, there really wasn't time to see everything.

In summary I bought:

1864-L Indian Head cent (EF40 or so) for $150

1886 Typ 2 G IHC & 1906 MS63 RB IHC for $20 for both. The 06 is a very nice coin. I didn't see it before I bid, but did catch a glimpse of red. I was just hoping it wasn't cleaned, it wasn't. I was really after the 1886 Type 2 for my album. Go figure.

A set of Jefferson BU nickels for $70. It is complete through 2004. This was a surprise lot that wasn't on the listing and I was only one of two people to look at it. I think everyone thought it was a circulated set. I was hoping for a nice 42-D and boy did I get it and then some.

2011 Proof Set for $20

1831 Bust Half (F or higher) for $50

A 1903 Barber quarter and a 1905 Barber dime for $6. I think everyone thought it was two dimes. I was pleasantly surprised too.

I could only stay for 1/2 the auction, but at times things were fast and furious. The auctioneer would unexpectedly combine lots and this caused confusion and some pretty low bidding.
