It's not my account, because... shh! I'm a minor.

So here's the link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Connecticut...251340115362

I'm not very good at salesmanning, though.

Lol, I was an early bidder. I am on the sidelines now and rooting for V.

Very nice description! I look forward to watching this sale.

It's sticking at $17.17. Not bad!!

However, someone's listed another one of the same variety... but I'm sure mine's nicer. My only fatal flaw is that all of you guys know the buy price.

It moved! Now it's at $19.17 after days of inactivity. With the exchange rate, that puts me over $20... awesome!

Meanwhile, the other 1786 6-K on ebay hasn't moved from 99 cents... either the market's saturated or it's because it has that slick, black, unappealing surface (meanwhile, mine is surely a paragon of beauty)...

You know, I did a search of completed listings on ebay and didn't find a single 6-K, and now there's two. That's some bad luck. That other ones really pitted, though.

So is mine a "solid" example of FR-2?

Grading and valuation will always elude me. But grading colonials is tricky at best, and at worst, a fool's errand.

All right, we're in the last 20 hours. I'm pretty excited!

There'll also be a little bonus in the envelope for whoever wins.

Meanwhile, that other 6-K is still at $0.99, but someone's bid on it.

Done! A last-minute bid put it up to $20.50 + $1 shipping.

Thank you all so much for helping me attribute it!
