I also put a bid on it, and I was also outbid. Lots of days left still.

this beats all the stuff the so called experts, the artsy fartsy crowd, go ape over,the stuff you have to guess and have an incredible imagination before you should see IT....and the stuff that sells for zillions....
this is without any daubt the most interesting I have seen.
Unfortunately.... I am not the high bidder.......yet.
Glency beat me...

Agreed HHB. Here's the Warhol "200 dollar bills", which sold recently for over $43 million.

Everything being equal, I'd rather look at a carefully crafted 1858 cent on my wall.

yes, true.... but then it is not signed with A. Warhol......
it is not the bills here, it is his signature.. and the crowd that goes "APE" about it..

How does that country song go again..."You see a priceless French painting,
I see a drunk, naked girl..."

obviously the priceless painting is hanging in Ottawa in the national Gallery, paid for with Tax dollars, millions of it....
as I said..... the signature counts...real or fake....

Someone got a sweet piece at a good price.
$453 at over 50 hours is less than minimum wage in time.
