Working on some new inventory last evening and had the TCNC auction running on the old desk top. Noticed the 1921 five cents brought over trends all in .
Seemed prices were all over the place . Anyone else participate or have comments ?

Prices were strange ... some sold over, plenty weren't touched. I was outbid on everything I bid on. I left a couple "live proxy" bids because I had to leave the computer, but they didn't take and one of the items went unsold.

Although nothing "wow'ed" me as if it was a bidding war between two bidders, plenty of coins from a previous auction that were untouched went up a few bids. I got lucky to get one that I wanted, but had to let go of a couple that got out of my budget. Also, one thing I noticed: http://cnc.forwardsim.com/auction/1...ale/lot/401" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> br / http://cnc.forwardsim.com/auction/1...sale/lot/401This isn't an OBV1 ... I hope these are the wrong pictures and that no one got fooled.. |

I won a good example of what happens when you mix Beer, multi-tasking/not paying attention and coin auctions. A 1949 fingerprint I really don't like them, but was looking st some other MS66's and got confused. Oh well, hopefully won't end up with too big of a loss on that one.  |

Looks like that obverse was handled by sasquatch going by the size of that print! I don't hate the coin and I think the price was right, so you'll be fine.

Prices were a bit all over the board, I couldn't win anything, except 1 mistake bid. I was surprised that so many items sold though, I think they found the right starting prices to attract bidders. It might have been the fall auction where a huge % did not generate any bids, this was probably less than 10% did not sell.

Do some "forensics" on the fingerprint........could be someone famous...........  . Great advice about beer and multitasking... That's why I had Granny and Tea ! |

I did get a 5c 1965 Large Beads MS62 for $1850 all included. Considering I sold an EF40 a couple of years ago for $2800, I'd say this was a steal.

Wow, that is a great swap EF 40 + $1000 for a MS62 of same coin. That is how collecting should go ;-) or at least it how I wish it went.
