    Yeesh. I just saw a beautiful original xf at a store yesterday for $400 or $500 I think. I almost wanted to buy it even though I usually buy uncirculated Indian Cents. The dealer had an 1877 too, and the rest of the set in xf/au! (He just bought it from a collector. He said the collector got a lot of the coins from him over many years!)

    Well if that's not a kick in the bottm!!!! I just sold 6 Indian heads on the bay of E that were good to VF and got $2.50 for them. Then I see this and stand confused. Maybe it was the dates I had????? I really don't understand bidders on Ebayimage
    Here is the link to the pennies I sold.

  • About two months ago I placed a nice G6 1872 IHC on ebay. The coin had full rims, it was of the shallow N variety, great eye appeal, absolutely no problems Anyway, it realized slightly over $50. Just doesn't make sense!!!

    Why worry about it? All I know is that bidders like these never seem to find my auctions.
    All glory is fleeting.
  • And what were those bids by dime time? Some just seconds apart, early in the auction?? Looks fishy to me.
  • He hasn't coughed up the bucks yet.
  • The Bids by dime time looks to me like a large bid by him being tested by some other bider
    if dime time put a large bid in it won't increase till some one else bids so some one was hitting it to see how high it was
