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.

United States. An Italian Fascist Rally at Morristown, New Jersey Medal 1936

In bronze, obverse illustrating the left-facing bust of Benito Mussolini, surrounded by the inscription "BENITVS MVSSOLINVS DVX MCMXXXVI", reverse inscribed "I. RADUNO ITALIANO "DUX" MORRISTOWN, N.J. 16 AGOSTO 1936-XIV I. DELL'IMPERO", measuring 31.5 mm, original ribbon, obverse and edge is lacquered, extremely fine.

Footnote: Prior to the Second World War, there was some support for Benito Mussolini in the United States, mostly from the Italian-American Community, which was deeply divided over whether to support him or to oppose him. This medal is from a pro-Mussolini rally held at Morristown, New Jersey on August 16, 1936.
