Curious what the reserve might have been.

$53 for each coin is still kinda great.

Strange way to sell those. There are only a small number of people with the kind of money to buy that set. Of that group, only a fraction would buy on ebay without being able to see the coins in hand. If he broke them up into smaller sets, or even individual coins I'm sure he would have hit his reserve. |

This seller is just being really lazy. He's never going to find a buyer to give him close to this lot's value selling like this. I mean, who's gonna even buy this. He should just take the time to photograph each one and set up separate auctions. Morgan and Peace dollars usually auction very well. Even if it takes him a weeks work to do this, he'd make well over $10,000 more than one fat lot. I don't even know how much more, I'm not gonna try and guess condition and calculate all this...and nobody else would either...hence the low ball. |

It would also help to get the more valuable ones certified. Seeing so much bulk like this of rare dates would make me fear there are fakes(even though pics don't look suspicious). Who buys raw keys in bulk? It is risky enough buying them raw one at a time. He may have been going for a longshot. |

Look at his feedback, it's mostly comic books. he probably has a collectibles shop and someone brought the Morgans in to sell...

With that many key dates I would be very leery of dropping any amount of money on them if they were un-certified.

WOW is right! If I own that set I would have spent the time getting the keys certified, Photographing each one and selling them one by one on ebay. Heck Even paid someone to photograph them in front of me and did it. Sure could have made a lot of Happy bidders. I do mean a lot! And someone said it made a good bit more $$$$ for them then what he had on a reserve bid. |
