What's a max bid?

Your maximum bid should be the highest amount you're willing to pay for an item.

Your entered maximum bid will not be disclosed to the seller or other auction participants at any point.

Max bidding example:

If the current auction price is $100 dollars and you place a maximum bid of $120 dollars, the system will bid $101 dollars on your behalf.

If no other participant places a bid, you win that auction lot for $101 dollars.

If another auction participant places a bid of $110 dollars, the system will subsequently place a bid of $111 dollars on your behalf. The system will continue to bid in $1.00 dollar increments until your maximum bid of $120 dollars is exceeded.

If another auction participant places a bid for $125 dollars, the auction lot price will display $121 dollars having exceeded your previously submitted maximum bid by $1.00 dollar.

Germany, Kriegsmarine. A Coastal Artillery EM/NCO’s Overseas Cap, by Knagge & Peltz

(Schiffchen für Männer der Küstengeschütz). A rare and very well-preserved Coastal Artillery EM/NCO’s overseas cap, constructed of field-grey wool twill. The cap is fully surrounded by fold-down side walls, with gentle scalloping at the front. Stitched onto the peak of the cap is an insignia consisting of a dark green rayon backer bearing a golden-yellow machine-embroidered Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika. The eagle insignia measures 60 mm (w) x 25 mm (h). Underneath the eagle, the cap bears a machine-embroidered tri-colour cockade measuring 35 mm (w) x 35 mm (h), surrounded by an original golden-yellow soutache. A field-grey cotton liner fully encompasses the interior, with a black ink maker’s mark of “KNAGGE & PELTZ, MÜNCHEN” stamped onto the left side. Also clearly visible just underneath the maker’s mark is a size stamp of “56”. The cap measures approximately 280 mm (l) x 125 mm (h) when folded flat. Sporadic patches of material fatigue are evident to the exterior wool, including a small hole just above the eagle, and another to the right side near the reverse. The cap is in an overall better than very fine condition.
