And I'm not talking coronavirus.

Just a few of the items you can win ;)

Which one are you bidding on?

    There are a lot of cool coins in the auction. There is only one coin in which I have a mild interest.

    I’m thinking a bunch of records will be set in this sale. We’ll see!

    What’s the bad news?

    Good luck to everyone! :+1:

    I hope someone here gets the Stickney-Garrett-Partrick Brasher! Cash in your stock or Bitcoin profits!

    I just learned that Virgil Brand had 2 Brashers, the only one to hold two at the same time! Parmelee had 2 but only while in the process of acquiring one and selling the other. Imagine owning this and one other Brasher, or even two ;)

    That CAC sticker on the Brasher was a gift. 😉

    Yeah, I couldn't afford the down payment on the buyer's premium for that stuff.

    Does "sick" mean "good?"

    I've never quite internalized that one yet.

    Wow.... Such numismatic treasures....I will not be involved, but will certainly be interested in the results. Cheers, RickO

    Bold Prediction:

    The top items (shown here) will do well but the second tier items will be somewhat weaker.

    It's kinda like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow morning and set tomorrow evening.

    Boyd, Ford, Partrick - What a great provenance chain!

    Who will be next? :)

    I bumped it up a bit hoping to have the high bid but no luck yet!

    Interested in learning why the J-1342 ... Bob had so many nice off metal strike Gold pieces so far. This does look and reads like a stunning piece

    I was going to drop a low ball bid on it until I saw it's already up to $77k :D

    Someone topped my bid :(

    At least I can still win the other one for $1! ;)
