what is the most expensive coin you ever won on Ebay?

Just wondering if people buy those big ticket items
I seldom check PM's but do check emails often jason@seated.org

Buying top quality Seated Dimes in Gem BU and Proof.

Buying great coins - monster eye appeal only.

    12.5k, that is nothing compared to what I used to spend at heritage before their awesome customer service reps.

    $1300 for a 1861 three dollar gold piece in a PCGS XF-45 holder. It was ok, but I sold it for $1800 at the last Long Beach Show.

    $750 for a PCGS MS63 1928 St Gaudens. It should have been a MS64. I sold it for a nice profit.

    Yep. 1878 7/8TFs Weak VAM 44 MS61 PCGS. $10,200 looks like a bargain now.

    A raw Chain cent for $660, which I slabbed (ANACS P01) and flipped for $1,100. It was a really nice Chain for a P1.

    A highly graded High Relief Saint. It was before PayPal became popular so it took a measure of trust to send the funds out to the seller. I don't recall the exact sum, but it was close to what HighRelief referenced above for a similar coin.

    $1200 for a PCGS AU-55 1909-S VDB about a year and a half ago.

    Today I see this same date and grade selling for $1500-1600.

    $931 for an uncertified 1811 large cent in glossy XF-AU. I made out well, because it would cost $2500 to get a coin like that from a copper dealer.
