and it's still climbing with days to go. Someone needs to do a reprint of this one, it's hard to find any publications on South African coins.

aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . .

SYRACUSIAN

You think that's a lot for a book Terry? Two years ago I saw an RRR version of the bible on modern Greek coins, (Istoria nomismatwn , 1821-1932), original version by the Ministry of Finances in 1932, pristine condition, first copy for sale in 15 years ! I missed my scheduled flight back home (I was in London) , to go to Spink's and buy it, 250 GBP non negotiable of course. One of my rarest and most treasured items.

I thought it would be a sleeper. There has been little to no competition for the SA publications I have found.

That looks like an outstanding piece of work. What do you think it is worth?

spinaker2000

not sure how high it will go with all the letters and kudos that accompany it. I was hopeing to get it for under $40 anyway. We' ll see.

spinaker2000

over $100 now.

I know I have been watching it too. This is gonna be a nail biter at the end.

The current highbidder (semoer) told me he thought it was worth about $50, but he is buying it for a customer.

I've noticed this semoer bidding on alot of the same things that I am either bidding on or checking out.
