How do you intend to look for one without buying hundreds and weighing them?

I meant coins generally not this one type, obviously ones like this i would buy or offer to buy as a BIN but not bid on eBay for them when worth a lot more than 99p.

I don't profess to follow or understand your rational, but hey, each to his own. I've always found that a low start attracts more interest and anything will eventually achieve it's current worth. If I get less than I paid, so be it and if someone gets a bargain, lucky them. I had it as BIN for £200 but no one did.

I missed it when listed as a BIN which was a pity, Good luck 😀👍.

Chris I would edit the listing on ebay if you can and state (This actual coin sold for 280 at London coins)

I just put my maximum bid into an auction sniper (I use Gixen) and then just ignore it until the end so I don't get drawn into a bidding war. 

I've won some bargains, but lost some I'd probably have bid up but possibly overpaid for.
