Looking at the auction results, it looks for the most part that they did fairly well in relation to legends estimates. It would be interesting to know andy's thoughts about how well they did. I did not see the coins at all, but based on the photos, it looked to me like the really nice ones did well above estimate, and some of the other better dates that were nice, but not stellar, fell a bit short?

They all looked wonderfully nice to me. If I would have an extra million to spare I would have bought the set intact from Andy.
Did they go for over the $850K he was asking on his site?
I believe Andy's set sold for about $562K. Steve

I think they start at lot 55 - add them up

Was 562K the hammer price? If so they probably netted a little over 600k

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......

The $562K was without the juice (assumed to be 17.5%). Andy was asking $800K + for the set. So the bidders got a better deal, even though most of the coins sold in excess of Legend estimate. Lot's of super premium coins sold for a very reasonable price (IMHO). I just wonder how many of these great coins were bought by the same bidder. I was watching, but did not note the sucessful bidder until the auction was over.
OINK
If he felt is was worth 800K +, he will lose a lot of sleep!
I took from legend's market report that legend bought every buff nickel in the set

Thanks for the clarification
