Nappy III gold won- no thanks to my computer

I was bidding on three e-bay auctions that ended Sunday when my computer went belly up. It restarted but in safe mode only-wouldn't let me go online either. Lost two of the three auctions except this one- if the underbidder had gone just a little higher, it was his for the asking.

    Well, I'm glad you got at least one of the three! I still like how cheap this old gold is compared to Lightside stuff.

  • I would agree with you on that jester. I see lots of darkside gold go on eBay for little more than melt. Of course a lot of it is not in the nice condition Laurent's 5 franc piece is, but still...
