  All of my bids were blown away.
  
  The CAC'd Chain Cent did not sell. Prices for AU Wreath cents ranged from the low $30's all the way to $80k.

  All coins kept in bank vaults.

  They looked chocolatey... Some milk, some dark, some most likely bitter sweet

  I think most interesting was how many did not CAC and yet sold for mooooon money.
  Im not denying there were some really nice pieces, but something made CAC not sticker them...

  may the fonz be with you...always...

  I would imaging a large part of the market for the Loring coins wouldn't care whether they were CAC'd or not.

  Yup, and the slabs won't matter much either, at least to EACers.

  Well, I'm waiting for Dame Laura to let us know whether they were all widgets, or not.
