Sounds like someone on the floor had bid it up to $1100 but I'm just hoping
that I get what I paid for.No worries OMF its a pity there wasnt 2 of them so we
could get one each.I hadn't expected to go that high but I just clicked on the bid
button and that was it

Yeah I have heaps of high grade pre decimal and decimal coins that would be better
in slabs but I've been deliberating for a couple of years on how to go about it as the
thought of sending them away makes me nervous.I'll get around to it eventually

It opened at $500, Jim called $700 on behalf of a postal bidder, there was a room bid at $720, Jim called $900, there may have been a room bid at $920 but I didn't see it, but Jim then called $1200. Then there was a live auction bid at $1300.

In this case, Jim was acting proxy on behalf of a bidder to obtain the lot at any price up to that bidder's specified limit. Jim was bidding on behalf of that client in normal step increases.
