    are you sure? I have the catalogs, and don't remember anything close to bullion. The Millennia collection represented the finest and rarest coins in the world, bullion would be out of place.

    I saw it, it was beautiful. What did it sell for?
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    I just watched it live.


    The 12 oz. sold for $9500, I think, it was moving fast. I was surprized how low the gold was selling until I realized that when you tack 20% on the sell price, it was selling for melt.

    When did that change? I'll have to check out one of their recent catalogues. Used to be a joke. (Or were you being sarcastic?) >>




    On the contrary! I was pleasantly surprised to see such clear detailed pictures of the coins that went off. I sat there for hours. off and on, throughout the weekend looking at coins. It was a real treat for a change. I imagine a few others here would say the same.

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

  • I believe the Millennia collection auction ended last night. Today's auction is world coins that weren't in the Millennia collection.

    << <i>John:

    The photography really is stunning.

    By the way, I bid on just one coin, lot #765, a 1648 Netherlands Lion Daalder. The catalog estimate was $300-$400; I bid $405.

    The actual price realized was $3,800. >>



    Not sure where they came up with their estimate, since the previous auction of an unc. Lion Daalder at Goldberg's was $4,600 last year.

    I held my hand up which seemed like forever to buy:
    this historical coin!
    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
