E-Auction 43 Lot 264

•Bateson, J. D. and Mayhew, N. J. Scottish Coins in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford and the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow. SCBI Volume 35. British Academy. 1987. Octavo. Blue cloth with gold stamped titles. 116 plates with full identifications. Introduction and Bibliography

Very Good copy; slight indications of use though boards a bit curled.

•Stewart, I. H. The Scottish Coinage with Supplement. Spink. 1955. 215 pages plus 22 plates. Octavo. Green covers simulating leather, gold stamped. A basic reference with extensive background and explanation of the series.

•Stewart, I. H. "Scottish Mints." in Carson, R. A. G. (ed). Mints, Dies and Currency, Essays Dedicated to the Memory of Albert Baldwin. London 1971. pages 165 to 291. Black buckram with gold stamped title. Dust jacket. This festschrift includes 18 articles on various mint issues including ancient coinage as well as British coinage. The Stewart article on Scottish Mints makes up nearly half the volume and provides a definitive account of Scottish mint history.

Both Stewart volumes in Very Good condition but there are tears in the dust jacket of the "Mints" volume (which I would be inclined to discard in favor of the underlying boards)..

How Bidding Works

 

How Bidding Works

 

Davissons Ltd uses a soft close for its auctions, which means no lot closes until everyone is done bidding. Every time a bid is placed within the final 40 seconds of a lot closing, the timer is reset to 40 seconds. This continues until no bids are placed for 40 seconds, at which point the lot closes. There will never be more than one lot closing at once, as the next lot is not allowed to begin closing until the current lot closes.

To bid: enter your maximum bid into the text box, and click submit. Only round dollar amounts are accepted. You are then required to confirm your bid. Once confirmed, all bids are final. If you have placed a bid in error you must call during office hours and speak to one of us. If you are the current high bidder then it will display “Current High Bidder: YOU” If you are not the high bidder, or if you are not logged in, then the current high bidder will be identified by their 5 digit client ID. You may find your client ID under the Account tab.

Bids are reduced automatically, so feel free to bid your maximum and it will be reduced to one increment over the current high bid. If a user places a bid that is higher than necessary to be the current high bidder on the lot, the displayed bid will reflect one advance over the next lower bid. For example, if a user "A" places a bid of $120 on a lot which opens at $100, "A" will be winning that lot at $100. If another user "B" bids $110, the winning bidder will be "A" at $120, one advance over the supporting bid of $110. If user "B" in this example instead placed a bid at $120, then user "A" will still be winning at $120 because they placed that maximum bid value first.

Increments can be viewed here. The next bid will always be on the next increment, so if a user is winning a lot at $100, or $105, or $109, the next bid will still always be $110.
