"I really did expect to see weaker prices for coins," said Greg Rohan,
president of Heritage Auctions. "On a scale of 1 to 10, I expected a
6, was afraid of a 4, but I'd say it was (at least a 7 ½ or even) a
solid 8."


I heard that a large number of lots in the Heritage auction did not
sell or went for disappointing prices.

It is not surprising if the president of the company puts a positive
spin on things, saying things did not go
well is not the way to build confidence in people using your company
to sell coins.
