Goldberg Winnings?

I saw Z's nice thaler so thought we shouldn't clog up his thread. Unfortunately for me between the extrmely slow connection at work and the Gldberg system I can't bid live so had to rely on the cheap bids I had put in before the auction started.

I got blown out on a couple of bids but got this Irish piece for cheap I thought. 1805 Ireland 1/2 d in PF65 BN.

This is very cool, Jeff. The reverse harp is something.

Mine again for good order.

I wanted to get an example from The Dan Holmes Collection and the only one I found appealing and relevant in terms of filling a slot was an 1811 Mo HJ Armored Bust 8 Reales of Ferdinand VII. It doesn't appear to be one of the varieties (overdate, overassayer) and not a mind blowing coin by any means, but I like it and hope it has luster in-hand. It displays some strike weakness, which is not usual for this series. I don't mind it, especially since you can see planchet stress marks from the rollers. Gives it certain character. It's currently residing in an NGC 55 slab.

I didn't run into any issues with their auction software, because I placed an absentee bid in advance.
