Only lost one participant? (no offense intended Faust) What an educated crowd. Next round, we'll ALL be all bunched around the eventual selling price.

Stooge · April 26, 2004 7:15AM

Can someone please fix my price...I bid $1,818.00 not $1,800.00

Thank you very much!

Later, Paul.

Littlejohn,
I would suggest you read the entire thread first before asking your questions. Mitch (Wondercoin) explained exactly what you could win and exactly what the rules were to win in the very first post of this thread. Steve

wondercoin · April 27, 2004 2:09PM

Craig: I believe at $1802 "garneteye" at $1,777.77 is still alive as well.

LALASD4 · April 27, 2004 2:55PM

Craig: I believe at $1802 "garneteye" at $1,777.77 is still alive as well.

I fixed that by moving the #.

wildjag · May 1, 2004 12:08PM

Uh oh ... high bidder has one feedback rating.

wondercoin · May 1, 2004 12:52PM

Wildjag - I noticed that myself, but, it was refreshing to see the high bidder had recently won (3) lots from our "esteemed colleage/board member" "Kiefercoins". True, they were $20 items, but, you have to start on ebay somewhere I guess

Wondercoin

nemesis93457 · May 2, 2004 12:09PM

I would guess....Allot. No really.

My guess is 1912.67

nemesis93457 · May 2, 2004 12:12PM

Day late and several thousand short (guess I should have started reading from page 5 forward...........Dumba$$

wildjag · May 2, 2004 12:16PM

Darn it.... I came so close on this one

wildjag · May 2, 2004 12:17PM

CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT GUESS!!

Congratulations, Randy!

CoinAddict · May 2, 2004 12:44PM

Congratuations, Randy!!!

coolkarma · May 2, 2004 2:30PM

Congratulations Randy! And appropriately, you get a high grade nickel for your estimate

tonyhar · May 2, 2004 4:10PM

Well Done.

TheNumish · May 2, 2004 11:49PM

Mitch,

Now that it's over what did you expect the coin to bring? Are you happy with the final price? I thought it would bring more than it did.

Jay

wondercoin · May 3, 2004 12:27AM

Jay: I was informed that one active bidder in the bidder list had a "snipe bid" that did not get timely executed. If it had, the coin would have sold for more money. Sometimes it is better to simply place a bid manually in the last minute or two I suppose. I expected the coin to break the $4,000 barrier.

On the other hand, the winning bidder is a good customer of mine and it never hurts for good customers to win at auction coins they believe they did well on.

Wondercoin

RGL · May 3, 2004 9:43AM

Mitch:

Thanks. I am stunned. Just flipped over to the Set Registry Forum and found my initials in the title! Certainly no great, educated numismatic wisdom went into my guess ... I picked a number that struck me as reasonable, i.e., I was lucky. It certainly is appropriate, I guess, for a Jeff collector to reel in a great Jeff! I can't thank you enough! I appreciate both the fun and knowledge you bring to our online community. (Sorry to be scarce in recent days, but my son was married on Saturday!)

Kind regards,

Randy

tgilliams · May 3, 2004 10:41AM

RGL · May 8, 2004 1:38AM

The beautiful PCGS 2001-P MS-67 FS arrived today ... as a Jeff guy, I really appreciate the coin. I wanted to publicly thank Mitch for the wonderful prize and the enjoyment he brings to these boards. Thanks again, Wondercoin!

wondercoin · May 8, 2004 1:45AM

Randy: You are welcome

We'll do another contest soon and then I was thinking after a few more rounds, perhaps have a "finals" including all previous contest winners competing for a nice "grand prize", but, more importantly the crown as the best modern coin pricer

I may even ask Mark Ferguson, Editor of Coin World Prices, to monitor the "finals" and report on the Grand Prize winner

Or, maybe I just have too much time on my hands!

Wondercoin

cladking · May 8, 2004 8:43AM

...it sounds like fun and you might get some "free" publicity out of it.
