OPENING BIDS & ESTIMATES:
The opening bid for all lots will commence at 10% above the second highest bid received or the consignor’s reserve (whichever is higher). All mail bids received prior to the live auction will be lowered whenever possible (so don’t be afraid to put down your maximum bid!!) All lots will be started at either the consignor’s reserve or 50% of the estimate.
Most lots will sell at 40% to 150% of the estimate. If you place a bid of about 60% of the estimate you should have a good chance of winning the lot, while a bid of 110% of the estimate you will likely win the lot. The estimates given are taken from Charlton catalogues, Canadian Coin News, eBay sales, Canadian Coin News trends, Canadian Dealer Newsletter retail prices, Krause publications, ICCS Cornwell, NGC Census, and PCGS Census.
BIDDING ADVANCES
The Auctioneer reserves the right to determine appropriate bidding increments and may accept or decline a bid that does not meet the required advance.
If no bids are received at the opening bid, the Auctioneer may accept or decline floor bids, leave the lot unsold, or proceed to the next lot.
Any bids placed by a consignor or an agent representing a consignor on their own consigned property remain subject to the applicable Buyer's Premium and any commission arrangements agreed upon with the Auctioneer.
All bidders are responsible for their own bids. Errors in calculations, bid amounts, or lot numbers will be considered valid bids once submitted.
In the event of a discrepancy between bids after the hammer has fallen, the Auctioneer's decision will be final. Where deemed necessary, a lot may be reopened and the previous high bidder may be required to bid again.
AUCTIONEER'S AUTHORITY
The Auctioneer reserves the right to make all decisions necessary for the orderly conduct of the auction, including the right to refuse or withdraw a bid, withdraw a lot, reopen a lot, or postpone or cancel the sale of a lot where circumstances reasonably warrant.
