Sorry wwwww but what do you think is there? Think I know what you mean about the die cracks they are the same as the specimen 1921* shilling so potentially a specimen strike?

I am not sure what Walter is alluding to , But what I DO know is he and his big brother Eric are smart cookies were coins are concerned

I viewed the coin, the coin has AU details but it only has EF surfaces (probably why they assigned it the grading). There are a lot of surface hairlines in the obverse fields.

I would guess the bidding wouldve opened at $1300 seeing as OMF bid $1200 via postal and you were $1300.

I was watching the bidding live online and it started pretty low and there were bids in the room pushing it up so that means there were at least 2 other bidders in the room.OK thanks

Ah ok I didnt know you could bid live. It would only take on bidder in the room to drive the price up because they would be bidding against OMF at $1200.
