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.

Buyer's Premium

All bids are subject to a Buyer's Premium which is in addition to the placed successful bid. The following rate of Buyer's Premium will be added to the Hammer Price of each Lot that you purchase:

Twenty-Two Percent (22%) of the Hammer Price

United Kingdom. A Delhi Durbar Medal 1911, Silver Grade

In silver, obverse illustrating the conjoined crowned left-facing busts of King George V and Queen Mary within an open-ended floral wreath of roses, reverse with the legend in Persian, which translates as "The Durbar of George V, Emperor of India, Master of the British Land", with the date "1911" in the centre, measuring 38 mm (w) x 42 mm (h) inclusive of its laterally-pierced ball suspension, with ring, edge nicks, contact marks and surface wear, original ribbon, fine.

 

Footnote: Delhi Durbar Medals were instituted by the United Kingdom to commemorate the Delhi Durbar where the new Emperor of India was proclaimed, in 1903 for Edward VII, and in 1911 for George V. On both occasions the medals were awarded in both gold and silver grades, un-named. They were worn in date order alongside Coronation and Jubilee medals on the left chest. These Royal commemorative medals were worn before campaign medals until November 1918, after which the order of wear was changed, now worn after campaign medals and before long service awards.
