Is this the type of auction you want to patronize? Proxiblog cannot speak for you, but here is its opinion. This lot has a reserve. The photo shows an 1881-O but describes it as an 1881 Morgan. The description says it’s an almost uncirculated Peace dollar. The Proxibid event allows the auctioneer to see maximum bids and raise them at his discretion. In addition, the house charges a 17.5% buyer’s fee.

It seems the house can do more for the online-buying audience. What is your opinion?

Proxiblog is an independent entity with no connection to the auction portal Proxibid. Our intent is to uphold basic numismatic standards as established by the American Numismatic Association and the National Auctioneer Association and to ensure a pleasurable bidding experience not only on Proxibid but also on similar portals such as iCollector and AuctionZip.
