But i knew i had a shot at this one. You had me at my max. Atcually thought it just top out at 2k, thats why i bumped it just pass it.
I looked at my emails this afternoon, and just knew when i saw those auto-bids, that i had lost, but i got lucky on a low pop specimen.
I talked to MattyC about this one, because i knew he had one, but said he sold his highest graded one(grade 2) at the convention show
Yeah, I was watching the Huggins Scott ones too.. Those were both really nice.

This one caught my attention because it had the combo of being nice and carrying an "A", so was hoping it would go lower than a numeric grade. I was pretty fired up to bid after hours, thinking I'd snag it around $2K.. But eventually tapped out after 2-3 bids.

Numeric grades seem sorta meaningless to me on these cuz unless they have the coupon, they're all cut. In this case, it got an A for a wavy top border, but seemed a fair trade for a straight bottom, and the pic looked great. If you ever part with it, or upgrade I'd definitely be interested.. Otherwise enjoy!
