I figure it is about time for another contest. Besides, I have been finding too many Indian Head Cents lately so I need to boot one off the reservation. I just listed a bag of wheat cents on eBay starting at 9 cents with no reserve. Here is a link to the info in the Buy/Sell section of the forum:
http://realcent.forumco.com/topic~TOPIC_ID~3142.asp
Guess the closing price.
All guesses must be posted in this thread.
Guesses must be posted by midnight Wednesday forum time.
1 guess per person.. no editing.
Closest guess wins an Indian Head Cent from my hoard.
Good luck on your guesses.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Every 300 bags misteroman.. I just don't know which one it is.
I actually found a 24-D in my zinc rejects last week.
I am liking these guesses, but I think some of them might be on the high side. |

I say $239.75
BTW: you said "too many Indian Head Cents"
Kind of like having too much money? |

| Let's just say I have enough Indian Head Cents where I can occasionally share one with my buddies on the board like texcattlerancer. But with a $45 guess I think he is going to be "still taunted" |

I was banking on TSHTF and prices dropping dramatically. It's a long shot, but I will be the only one with a price in that range. Now, if somebody chooses $44 or $46 to cut me by a dollar either way, I'm going to be pi----. |

| Well there would probably at least be an official second chance offer. |

`Everybody is ignorant. Only on different subjects.' Will Rogers
"This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the "hidden" confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard." Alan Greenspan, 1966. |
