You guys do remember that I am pretty much unavailable on the weekends, right?

The final Price was $80 + $10 Buyer Fee... So, call it $80 or $90, either way...

CaptainFwiffo was closest!

BTW, had it been $100.50, the rules say the lower guess wins.

Congratulations, CaptainFwiffo, winner of Guess The Price - Season 26!

I did not buy this coin. There is a story, but I will let the volunteer tell it.

Story behind the coin: the one that got away.

I had bid on this coin on a non-bay auction site. I watched it end with my bid (I thought) and pulled up the listing after the auction and saw I was the winner (but did not get a screen-shot) and waited to be invoiced. The invoice did not arrive and when I went back and looked, it showed someone else's bid! I contacted the auction site and have not heard back from them - I did not get the screen shot so I am counting this one as GONE PECAN! My "winning bid" was $65.

Lesson learned: if you win it, screen-shot it!

Now I'm waiting in anticipation for season 27. (: I think the local auctioneers would call me new blood.

Congrats captainFwiffo ...

Oh, and awesome effort Earle! (great battle!)

=> and as always => thanks for the great time, jbuck!

26 seasons x (30-50 contestants per season)

Man, my hat is definitely off to you for somehow managing to pacify such a broad spectrum of nationalities, personalities and varying age-groups! ... well done!

Oh, and most of all => thanks for not weeding-out Cajunlady0 even though she is clearly off of her medication ...

Guess-The-Price---Season-26---Winner:-Captainfwiffo!

... oh, and I will try to take Wheezy's advice and limit my photos to a specific few (I promise)
