I'm in shock at how high this went on Ebay
When I started this out at just 99 cents I had no idea it would
get to this. A couple of people wanted it badly. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=8328152128 Best auction I have ever had on Ebay. |

-- Maybe $40-$50 It is rather scarce but the market for depression scrip is fairly thin compared to other areas of numismatics. A couple of the bidders are veteran collectors in this area so I guess they had a better idea than I did on what it is worth. |

I'll bet you are glad that you didn't have a BIN in the range you thought it was worth. -- George D Phoenix, AZ AAA, AARP, ANA, EAA, NRA, RCC, PIA, PIAAZ, GATF 2004 Black Prius pkg 6 Please use this address to mail me.

I've sold scrip to both the high bidder and the underbidder, and can attest that both are serious collectors (and quick payers ...). The underbidder has a very informative website on Depression Scrip located at (not surprisingly ...) http://www.depressionscrip.com/ -- Ken Barr Numismatics P. O. Box 32541 website: http://www.kenbarr.com San Jose, CA 95152 (souvenir cards, MPC, Hickey Bros tokens) 408-272-3247 Next show: Fremont CC Aug 20 - 21 (no table) |

thought it was worth. Yeah, that would have been a disaster. Depression scrip is an area that does not have a track record of established values that are easy to look up. The standard catalog in this area was published in 1984 and hasen't been updated since then. I like to start them at 99 cents and just see what happens. |

Congratulations, I don't understand why some people think that ebay is some kind of evil organisation, where else could a seller get such a very pleasant surprise for such a small outlay. I suggest that you invest your new found wealth in LEGS, the new grading company due to sweep the numismatic world off its feet. :-) Billy |

Do you think perhaps the buyer may have been confused because the note
in the photo was not the one up for auction??? |
