They got the title right. I got all excited to be notified of a coin auction right near me. Then I went to the website! The WORST auction I have ever viewed. Terrible pictures of common coins in mystery slabs with outrageous estimates.

For a good laugh check it out:

All the auction company is looking for is two people to show up that are absolutely coin idiots and want everything. As long as they have money burning a hole in their pockets the auction company will be happy to accommodate them!

What a way to start out 2020!

And a 23% buyer premium. A bargain on some rare coinage.

I've seen a lot of bad auctions in my years, but this one takes the cake. Not just from the fact that a lot of those coins in the basement slabs are probably worth less than the cost of the slab, but the bad photos and that only one side of the coins seem to be shown. Wow

Looks like the opening bids are about right for being the high bids on most of them.
