After the show ended, I went to see how the Platinum Night auction was going. There were some amazing historical, once-in-a-lifetime coins for sale in this auction. The Brasher Doubloon had already sold before I got there for less than expected at just over $10 million, but I saw the 1913 sale, which also sold for less than anticipated at $2.8 million.

Thanks for including that photo of the Platinum Night Auction room. Although I could not be there, it made for a neat personal connection to know that two of the people in that room took home two of the coins that I had submitted for auction. Also thanks for the photos showing the details on the 1913 Hawaii Five-0 coin's bidding. Found it interesting that no one in the room bid it up and it went for the mail/fax 2.8 million bid. Isn't that lower than a prior sale for the same coin though apparently it is a new auction high for the Hawaii Five-0?
Thank you everyone for all the wonderful compliments and kind words! I very much appreciated all the forum members who took the time to stop by my table and allowed me to include them in my report. This really was a great show and I enjoyed bringing it to all of you who couldn't be there in person.

Thanks for reminding me to never attend a major show on a Sunday!
