Interesting auction, anything less then $2k it would be at a loss.

I am curious where it ends.

why 22? I thought 20 was the holy number?

I do not know the seller well but have heard of him. he advertises simular to downies so that would be my guess.

Madbudgie0 posted last night on the Aussiecoins forum quote
"P.S... Out of interest, I know for a FACT another of Sydney's dealers found one (just the one)in their allotment yesterday. But sorry guy's & girls it is sold, and the price I was quoted.... $1950, wonder where he dreamt up that price?"
If this is correct then there are 21. Is the one on ebay no 22?
Lars, you know I missed this and want one of these but I'm afraid ebay will push it way over the top - as if it wasn't anyway!

It is almost up to $1700 with 8 days to go, I think that it will sell for well above the 2K mark.
A new Star is born, but is his name 'Mule' or 'Error'?[:p]

Definitely a new star. This will go much higher than $2000 as, when the auction ends in more than a week, the fear of alot more appearing will be less and all who missed out on the 20 can bid on this ONE!

I think the name that will stick is a "Proof 2005 Mob of Roos".

$1950 with 3 days to go, this should prove interesting! I've heard estimates of 5K being realised, but we shall have to wait and see. If there are only 22 examples of this Coin, does that make it the rarest non-error Coin to ever exit the RAM?

Auction ended at AUD$3,333.33 . If you look at the bidding history, there are heaps of collectors who are willing to pay more than what Downies was asking.

The market has not even had time to digest and absorb that new high realisation price, and another of these rarities is up for sale...

He may have got the set from Downies.

He certainly got his images from there.
