Quote from: 'proof27' pid='55404' dateline='1406186980'A lot of coins last night didn't make estimate.

Yes, at the end of the day it is an estimate... Based on what I have seen most of the coins sell for close to the estimate when the market is strong...  There was a 1952 Shilling in MS65 that sold for ~$750 last night. I paid $1000 a few months ago for a similar coin... That's life, ups and downs..  Bluesheet looks at the average price that gets impacted by recent sales...  On the same token I have bought other coins for far less priviously and now they are selling as mush as $500 -$1000 more than what I paid for them... Most of the high grade coins go above the estimates whereas lower grade coins making far below estimate... It is simple economics of supply and demand... Everyone now wants MS64,65,66 or 67 ... No one wants to pay any money for the poor (I think it is not anyway) MS62,63 coins..

Good luck with today's auction folks !

I hope one of our Mob got that MS64+ Canberra, I pulled out at $500.
It looks like a corker of a coin and congrats to whoever bought it :good:

Nice pickup, I noticed that the prices on the better florins were pretty soft.
Looks like the Canberra has lifted the game for the florin teams, As it should  :yahoo:

I won something!!! This is my first wins at Numisbid - EVER. I now have a couple of florins. :yahoo:

Not total bargain since it went for around the estimates. But still. My first pre-decimals.

Here are my babies:
1960 Florin - PCGS MS65
1963 Florin - PCGS MS64
