    That's a lot of cash for a little bit of pictures. I've noticed that the prices for the "unclaimed property" always are way higher. I'm thinking of changing my name ebay name to "unclaimed property"image

    Those do NOT look like proofs to me. Someone got hosed.

    If that primary photo is any indicator, there will be a return in that buyer's immediate future.

    If this truly is a state unclaimed property auction then the buyer is out of luck. Normally such auctions are a no-return situation.

    127 Proof 1909 VDB cents? Something like 1/3 of the official mintage? Right.

    At least these fine folks (bidders) are not out kicking in doors and cashing in 150 year old coins at face value!

    I see the usual shills were working it.

    This looks like one of the biggest ripoffs I've seen in a long time. The winning bidder will probably fall on his/her sword when he/she receives those coins.image

    Hopefully, they will pay with a credit card via PayPal. Then, a chargeback is no problem!
