What a coin, the estimate has got to be a bit off wouldn't you think?

10K would be an absolute bargain price for that particular coin :drooling:

been checking out the bids and it seems many are already well over estimates ...
-- is this due to under valuing by auctioneer
-- specialty collection hype
or .. whatever :dodgy:

Just went through the 110 pages, OMG, what a collection, a lot of no bids yet either. Amazing coins, AMAZING.

trout · July 27, 2014, 07:53:08 PM

IF I had 40k I could get my hands on I would bid it on the Proof Canberra in a Heartbeat.
Heart stopping Coin IMHO:drooling:

proof27 · July 27, 2014, 08:01:36 PM

That Proof Canberra is But a "Daydream" coin for me but I have a real chance at scoring my second (Different type) Pagoda which IS within my limited budget and I will just have to be content with that.
ONE Powerball and that Puppy would be MINE though :yahoo:

When I see a great coin that I don't have the funds to buy I always hope it sells for a high price. That way I don't have any regrets for not having the cash on hand.
How would Trout feel if 8,000 was the only bid and some bugger got his dream cheaply?
