canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 12/07/2011 2:10 pm Is this the coin that Sid Belzberg bought on ebay for $600? That is the story that I heard, I was wondering if someone could confirm. It is for sale on Heritage Auctions with a buy-it-now of $181,000. http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleN...&lotNo=50396 Report this Post to the Staff

I suspect if one of the heavy hitters I know gets this piece, they will have a coin dealer buy it from this auction on their behalf...

littlemoney Pillar of the Community Canada 902 Posts	Posted 12/08/2011 3:01 pm I could understand the owner of the 1911 Dollar being shy, but what fun is that ? Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10460 Posts	Posted 12/08/2011 3:07 pm Ironically, the owner of the 1911 silver dollar is anything but shy... and when it comes to error coins, he is very forthcoming and blatant about them being nothing more than "scraps of metal"!
