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.

A Romanian Medal of Military Virtue; War-Time Issue

1st Class, 1880-1916: Silver gilt, 36.8 mm, original ribbon with hook and eye, contact marks, very fine. Footnote: The medal was created by Prince Alexandru Cuza in 1864 and instituted by Carol I on March 27, 1872, to be awarded to non-commissioned officers for twelve years of distinguished service. The war-time version was instituted on November 25, 1880, the gold (gilt) version for officers. A Decree of September 26, 1916 reserved the award for lower ranks (officers being awarded the Order of Michael the Brave) and it was the highest ranking Romanian cross or medal.
