However, if you are Outbid in last few seconds on Fax Bids to +91-22-23870 647 your coveted lots, than it is not possible to make a fresh (must be received on or before 20 October 2014 by 6:00 pm) Higher Bid and win that lot. Moreover, if you are bidding on more than one lots than it becomes very difficult to bid Postal Bids to the Regd. Office on those lots in last few minutes. (must be received on or before 20 October 2014 by 6:00 pm) To overcome these problems, we have introduced SMS Bids on +91 90040 82585 a new system of Internet Bidding called Real-Time (must be received on or before 21 October 2014 by 2:30 pm) Bidding. Email Bids to [email protected] Real-Time Bidding (must be received on or before 21 October 2014 by 2:30 pm) The Real-Time Bidding is quite like a Physical or Floor Auction Bidding. Lots in the above given categories will close according to the Bid-Closing Schedule as given above. However, if there is Bid recorded within a span of 2 Minutes prior to the lot’s scheduled closing time (say 4:00 pm), the Count-down Clock for that lot will be reset to 2 Minutes more and the closing time of that particular lot will be extended accordingly (4:02 pm). Moreover, the said lot will be further extended for another 2 minutes if there is a Bid recorded within a span of 2 Minutes prior to the lot’s new extended closing time (4:02 pm), making the extended time on that lot till 4:04 and not 4:02 pm. As a consequence, the bidding on that lot will be like the Real-Time Bidding as seen during the physical auction. Finally, Bidding on any lot will only end if there is no bid recorded for a span of 2 minutes. 3 Ancient Coins 7 Punch-marked Coins, Gandhara Janapada (5th century BC), Silver, 1.34 g, Shana (1/8 Shatamana), single (600 BC to AD 700) symbol type, with a single symbol in the centre, scyphate (Rajgor Series 41).
