One Small request for Heritage Live*

While I love this system, and it seems to get better and better every time I use it (I don't use it very often), I am hoping to add one bit of constructive improvement to the Heritage Live* Window:

Project photo's of both the Obverse and Reverse, not just a photo of the obverse popping up on the screen.

I know space is tight/limited, but I think some tweaking and scrunching of the text immediately right of the image could incorporate both images.

Just a thought, I will also convey this message directly to Heritage image

    I'd also like to be able to scroll ahead and see what's coming. They used to have this feature, but not any longer.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Dennis, I didn't notice until you brought it up that they took that feature out...I liked it too! image

    There are four tabs now in the Heritage Live window. The default tab is the "Bid Live" tab which only brings up the current item and then has the next 4 or 5 listed below. If you click on the "Live Proxy Bid" tab you get the scrolling list of all the auction items and can move up and down to your hearts content and place live proxy bids to boot!

    I may not have gotten the tab names exactly correct, but you'll know what I mean the next time you're watching.

    I would a link from the LIVE system to go to the full lot item page in another window....

    Yeah, it kind of stinks that they did away with that.

    It's still there. Just access it by hitting Live Proxy as MB also mentioned. You can actually get to it a couple of different ways. Really just look for the Live Proxy button on the screen. It's right above the "coin" that is currently being auctioned. MJ

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    As others have mentioned, you can scroll to other coins in the auction by going to the Live Proxy Bid tab.

    I will certainly pass along the suggestion about posting images of both obverse and reverse. I like the idea in principle, but as the OP mentioned we have to deal with space considerations.

    I'll also pass along the suggestion about having a link directly to the full page for the lot. I think there may be a way to do that now, but if so it's not obvious.
    Sincerely,

    If you're taking requests ...

    Please add a way for us to save search preferences as they relate to what result categories are shown.

    I never want to see heritage inventory, virtual bourse, buy now from owner, and anything else other than current and upcoming auctions.

    After each search I have to click all of those other options off to get down to what I am interested in.

    It's no fun image
