AUCTION - Rhodium, Crowns, Francs and Silver Shot

G'day Folks,

Been a while between offerings (been busy in Central Qld) so on offer this time around some fractional Rhodium, a set of '37/'38 Crowns, a pair of Silver Francs (something old (1849) and not so old (1974) ) and some Silver Shot from "back in the Day"

Auction finish starting at 19:00 WST (20:30 SA / 21:00 EST) - Friday 6th October... TONIGHT!!!

ALL Lots finishing at the same time!! *With the usual "5 minutes after Final bid" actual finish for each particular Lot (Forum Timestamp used) *

Any valid bid for a particular Lot extends the Finish for ALL Lots!!
ie. The Auction will be Officially over once ALL bids have finished!!

**Note** As a further "clarification", highlighted from previous Auctions, any bids not deemed "valid" (ie. raising a bid on a Lot your bid is already currently leading or a bid at less than / same price as the current leading bid for a particular Lot) will NOT extend the Finish time of the Auction... (Hoping this adds clarity ...)

*No edited Bids, please the Forum does indicate "edited" when posts are edited (look above the "Quote Reply" right hand side) so if you make a bid and it turns out the same or lower than a previous bid please place a new post for the bid to make it higher rather than "edit" the post with the unsuccessful bid - although editing to clarify a Lot # is fine *

Due to no "seconds" showing on Forum timeclock any duplicate bids with the same timestamp will be "first in line" gets the spot

~SPOT RESERVEs - Highest bid over Reserve price will be the winner on ALL Lots

Postage at Winner's Choice/Cost/Risk (at this stage...)

BONUS – FREE Pre-'46 Florin(s) for winners of Multiple Lots

And without further ado, on to the Auction...
