Anyone win today at Goldbergs?

I went 1 for 1. Lot 92, 1825 Half Cent C1. I seem to have a love for these (my 4th EF) since reading about this variety in a 1976 Bowers and Ruddy Rare Coin Review (QDB gave me a complimentary subscription, after this 14 yo kid wrote him a letter about investing in 2 particular coins. He suggested in a return letter that I first learn to enjoy coins for their 'history, romance and lore'). Some things leave a lasting impression on youngster. Don't forsake the opportunity to teach a child about numismatics if the opportunity presents itself!

If anyone could post a pic. of my win, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Here's the link...

    The right click thing is not working for me.

    Great story. That is what the hobby is all about, IMO.

    I will have some bids in tomorrow's session.

    didn't bid on any of the old copper from the early session but was busy viewing a few hundred lots while that bidding was going on...

    in the bidding this evening so far I'm 1 win out of 4, so at least I'll end up with something image A few more to try for later too, if I don't fall asleep first!

    Tried on a 1905 Proof $20 Gold in PF 58 CAC. Put in a cut bid, and apparently with Goldberg once you cut, you cant bid again! So I was outbid by one increment.
    Im sure I will see the coin on a dealers website somewhere.

    Still waiting to hear on the others.
  • I like your taste in Branch Mint Gold and really like the repunched date on this one!

    Unless some have changed their policy I don't know of an auction house that doesn't have that rule.....
