Is two buyers for your carpet. I was watching this on GC and thought about hitting the opening bid ($250.00) That was all the money but it’s a nice one. Two bidders wanted this carpet. https://www.greatcollections.com/Coin/1184252/1935-D-Buffalo-Nickel-PCGS-MS-65-Toned

Expensive carpet! I’d pay if Alibaba’s 🤔
So... $300 worth of coin and $2500 worth of what, exactly?

I’m assuming the price jumps dramatically in 66… or two people think they see a valuable variety?
Way too much being spent for this piece. It's nice but not $2500 nice. Opinion.

I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong.”

That's between 66+ and 67 money, and I don't see the RPM.

I surely do not see the reason for such a price. Perhaps the bidders were chasing an upgrade for a set.... Looks like it was overbid by more than $2K IMO... Cheers, RickO
65 as good as it's going to get. I would be shocked if this piece were to ever get 66 from our host. If a variety, has to be really obscure.

Perhaps the bidders thought the F and C are representative of a new DDR.
