Printed Auction 31 Lot 409

The Montagu Collection of Coins. Anglo Saxon and English coins in three sales. 1895, 1896. By Sotheby, Wilkinson & Hodge. London. Contemporary binding; half leather; raised bands; gold stamped on spine; marbled end papers. Three sales covering this major collection of British coins beginning with the Anglo-Saxon series and ending with the reign of Anne. Over 2700 lots of coins of the highest possible quality are listed with 16 high quality collotype plates of coins. This collection is legendary for its quality and comprehensiveness. Prices realized are written in the text in a neat hand; buyer's names are also noted. Contents are fresh and fine; there are a very few small library stamps from the Fitzwilliam. The covers are tight and generally fresh though there is a bit of separation after the front fly leaf; there is some rubbing on the spine and on the corners. An original selling price of £225 is noted on the first inside page. The volume originally came from Spink.

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.
