OK, who out there won Bear's 1818 PCGS AU-58 half?

It was one of the items in the latest Goldberg auction, and my 3rd attempt to get this coin was total failure. Who is the lucky person that got it? Someone here on the boards? Not upset or anything, I know how nice that coin is...

    Where's Bear been anyway?
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    No body won it, it did not make reserve, but it came very close indeed.

    We want pics, this thread is no good without pics. Please don't tease us with talk of an outstanding coin and not show it.

    The coin has now been sold. I will leave to the new owner to state ownership.

    I did not intend to sell the coin tonight and I sincerely regret, that the wrong Forum

    was used.However, It went to a Forum Member and that is a good thing.

    You have NINE more that look as cool as the one posted? And they are going to Laura? I can't wait to see them posted on the Legend website.

    Congrats to the new owner of that 1818 half!

    4th attempt, epic FAIL! Guess getting that half is like chasing someone that never even looks at you, or something like that...
