Judge Dred (Fred)If you look at the final four bidders and the top two are heads and tails above the rest then you know it was a battle between two individuals. If the top three or four bidders are within close proximity in their bidding then the bidding probably reflects the value of the card.
For example, if the top two bidders were near $64K and the third bidder and fourth bidders were $60K less then you can use deductive reasoning to figure out what happened.
Straight dollar amounts on winning bids can be a little deceiving when trying to figure out what a card may be worth. Like Barry mentioned, if another similar card shows up then it will probably sell for much less than the $64K final bid that won that last Lyons K-Bat.
