    Yes I did, very successfully. I thought a large number of the prices were weak but some were very strong. I was outbid on a few and came close to my max on the two which I won, but I persevered!

    I'll make a separate thread when I receive these but I figure it can't hurt to spoil the surprise a bit now image

    Very nice!

    I took a few more modern pieces at nice quality. The 1/4 taler is generally not what I look for yet this one has a nice appeal to it.

    Nice coins so far.

    I did not play - there was very little material in my area of interest.

    Two multi-coin lots caught my eye, but when I inspected them pre-sale one would have only added one coin and upgraded two and the other would have added two with no upgrades. In both cases I decided that I'd have to bid far more than the lot was worth to me, so maybe next time.

    I won a few lots. Nothing like the quality material posted earlier though. I feel like a very small fish here sometimes image

    Wow! Fantastic pieces all. I'm especially drawn to the two non-ancient gold pieces (are they Dutch?) and the Greek Syracuse piece. In fact, I'm especially drawn to that Syracuse piece.

    Some very nice pieces shown above. I just bid on one lot which I won so cheap it's embarrassing, but it's tough to find these small billion coins in high grade.

    Mulhausen was established by Emperor Heinrich I (918-36) and had an imperial mint in the 12th and 13th C. It was granted the right to mint it's own coins beginning in 1496 and was absorbed by Prussia in 1802.
