It's at $2,600 with only 10 hours left in Internet bidding. I imagine it'll go up considerably in tomorrow's floor session.

So it's available for highest bid on-line, then the high on-line bid would be the starting bid on the floor? Is that how it works?

Yeah, but you can also submit proxy bids, bids by telephone or fax, or you can use the live-session bidding web thingy.

It's fun to watch this especially when we know the story behind the coin. I hope it goes to $20k tomorrow.

Do you know what a Cut Bid is?

Edit: Never mind - just figured it out.

Can't believe I am going to miss this when it is so close (I have to hit the road). SmokinJoe, my fingers are crossed for you - it looks like the mail/fax bids drive the price so hopefully they will be in the money. Cheer$!

Final bid is $4,250 which is just under $5k with buyer's premium. Congrats SmokinJoe!
