Who in the world outbid my $415 stratosphere money on this coin? You must have really wanted it!


*edited to change moon money to stratosphere money...I guess it wasn't really THAT high.

    I guess someone like you!

    You bid only $5 less?

    Wasn't me, I'd never bid that much for a 100 year old penny...image

    Must have really wanted it to pay 63BN money.

    I loved the look, I guess. I would buy a 58 over a 63 anyday

    There's no way to know how high the winning bidder actually bid. It could have been $10,000 and all anybody would see is the final bid amount.

    Right... it's $5 increments at that level. For example, if you bid $505 on a coin and the underbidder bid $495, you'd only be paying $500.

    Original coins like that are in demand.

    I'm not surprised that coin sold for decent money.

    Wow! I need to ask, are you glad you were outbid seeing as it went for more than MS?

    Oh and to answer your question, this guy!

    8***a( 103)

    He even bid TWICE at better than $420!
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    It's nice for AU58.

    Still seems like it went for stratobucks.

    True, True. My obsession with eye appealing first year of issue coins is leading me down an expensive path, apparently

    Not a bad looking Cent.

    Honestly, my fav grades are 50-53-55-58. But, between a true 58 and a true 63, Ill take the 63 anyday of the week.

    What's meant to be is meant to be. Nice example but tomorrow, you'll find one better, for less money. image
