Last evening (or early this morning, depending on your time zone), Heritage auctioned off a giant collection of nearly 1400 certified error coins, everything from simple clips to transitional off metals. Here is a link to the auction page if you missed it:

The online-only auction started at 8:00pm EST, and was only 2/3 complete when I finally gave up and went to bed just after 1:00am. The only coin I won was with a proxy bid and probably hammered close to sunrise, this 1967 clipped SMS half dollar:

I was outbid badly on several other nice coins in the auction, and I gave up a little to easily on one other coin that in retrospect sold pretty reasonably, a 1970-S clipped proof Jefferson Nickel.

Post any coins that you won in this auction below, and let us know if you managed to stay awake for the entire sale and what you are doing to stay awake and alert today. :)

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
