Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 01/18/2007 11:26 pm I have heard of a bidding war before but this is silly. This Half is worth nowhere near what these bidders are doing here. Insane. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...71&rd=1&rd=1 Edited by Bryan1315 01/19/2007 01:47 am Report this Post to the Staff

Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 01/18/2007 11:48 pm I did look up the value of this in CoinValues and in that grade it says it is worth $500 but I never thought anyone would actually ever pay that. Especially for a Franklin half. LOL. Edited by Irishraider 01/18/2007 11:49 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Lightwind_99 Valued Member Philippines 52 Posts	Posted 01/19/2007 12:29 am Wow, I never thought a Franklin half would reach that top. i have one in my collection and I requested a free appraisal from heritage auction and the value resulted only for $4. I guess the seller actually hit the jackpot. Report this Post to the Staff

coldshot Valued Member United States 156 Posts	Posted 01/19/2007 12:23 pm I love the coloring but I am no fan of franklins. It is way over bid but in the heat of the moment some people get carried away. Report this Post to the Staff
Spider5689 Pillar of the Community United States 2269 Posts	Posted 01/19/2007 4:58 pm This is unusual. Bidding wars usually start toward the end of the auction. Report this Post to the Staff
snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 01/19/2007 7:36 pm It could be a couple of registry set types trying to one-up each other. I remember getting left in the dust when a bidding war erupted over a 1932-S Washington quarter that I had put a modest bid on. A few weeks later I saw the exact same coin on ebay. When I searched the sellers history, he had bought a higher grade coin and was already dumping the lower grade coin he had just bought. It's insane. Report this Post to the Staff
