Is there any chance, may be the other guy bid over the price he won, but the computer just enter the next increments?

He outbid me by less than one full increment. It was the exact bid he entered, and just happened to be Three Cents more ambitious than I was.

I'd have probably gone higher for this coin, had I known there were other sharks in the water.

Ouch, three Lincolns. That smarts. I know where you are coming from happen to me on a coin. My mouth was watering, so happy I was gonna add this coin to my collection and than the final seconds, pulled from my grasp. There is a art to sniping. Sorry SuperDave, for the trauma you must had to endure. Been playing around with starting up a Morgan collection myself. I know that's a big boys game. Could you PM me with a suggestion on reading material to help me get off on the right foot.Thanks!
