    Unfortunately I was clobbered on the two lots I chased - both far exceeded estimates and previous results by 2x+

    I bought two of Feuchwanger three cent pieces. They both had some issues, but I didn’t want to spend a fortune on them. One went for less than I thought it would and other for a little more. I now have type token examples of all of the Feuchwanger one and three cent pieces, including the 1858 to ‘63 (?) novadel and the 1863 Civil War token. I hope to write an article that will be published somewhere.

    I was the underbidder on the South Carolina Feauchwanger composition piece in an earlier Heritage auction. I Steve beat me out. It sold for even more in his sale, so I guess he knew what he was doing.

    I thought about bidding on that Indiana Primitive, but laid off it. It really doesn’t fit in with other Indiana Primitives I have, which are mostly patriotic (not merchant) tokens.
