Someone was selling 40 dateless SLQ's. Normally when people sell a lot like that it goes for $230-$250. This went for $356, but only because I was the under bidder. I don't think anyone but the two of us knew what that was. I really wish I'd bid $400 and if I lost then I wouldn't have minded as much. I got nervous and stopped at $350, so I don't know how high the other guy would have gone. If I was wrong every dollar over the normal sale value of the lot would have been a dollar lost.

I was kind of in a catch 22 while the auction was going on. I wanted to post it here to get opinions, and if people had backed me up (as seems to be happening) I would have bid more. But if I did that while the auction was still live I'm sure some of you would have jumped in the bidding!

Definitely hard to be sure with such a dark coin but I thinkthe robe fold on the arm and the bottom of the robe up off of the step leans me towards a 1916.

Was it sold in a lot or buy tiself? What was the final bid?


The bidding ends Sunday and the minimum bid was lowered to $30. If it is a 1916, someone will either get a nice piece for their collection or make some nice dough!

jamwins,

Are you talking about your auction that you linked on the last page? As we have already said that is absolutely, 100%, no question whatsoever a 1917 T1. You might get $30 for it, but people get shy about a high opening bid even if they would end up spending that much in the end anyway. Good luck!
