G'day Folks,
On offer this time around some 1/20th Gold Lunars and some Special Silver Lots
Series II Tiger and Dragon Gold 1/20ths, Some Canadian 50cent pieces (and some Aussie ones too), A group of "Luckies" (Feng Shui Dog and Ganesh rounds), some early Libertads and an almost complete (missing 1
) set of Proof Sterling Franklin Mint "Great Explorers" 
Auction finish starting at 18:00 WST (19:30 SA / 20:00 EST) - Sunday 27th August... TOMORROW NIGHT!!!
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 RESERVE - 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
