Well.....that someone just might be me. David gave me the OK yesterday to bid on this coin, so my max was 235 Euros and was able to get it for 232 Euros, about $295. I think I got a pretty darn good deal and I want to thank David for giving me the green light on this one. However, now I have to lay back and watch but not bid for probably the rest of the year. But, hey, I'm happy.

Thank you Anoob and Windchild. I have to be honest. I have been having heartburn ever since I spent that much money. I just laid down to rest a bit ago and was unable to cause I was thinking about the cost of this one purchase. It is no where near my most expensive coin, but it's still expensive for me. I also have to admit that I have been wanting one ever since Jerry showed off his Yertle a couple of months ago. Darn that Jerry. He gets me in so much trouble. Honest Honey, Jerry made me do it!

Bing for 232 euro I would have snapped it up myself had I not just spent £165 on that pegasus coin. With one in the post to me it was easier to pass up the turtle and I honestly believed it would finish up at much more than you paid...

Therefore a big congrats to you...and I will hope to find another similar deal at a later more appropriate time. The reason I posted the coin was because it looked like a good one and I was only too pleased to give you the green light :) and nice to see that you got it for a very fair price in my opinion.
