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:

Brazil, Kingdom. A Dom Pedro II Insignia c.1890

A facing-right etched Brazilian branch symbol of the Wyvern in silver gilt, crowned by Brazilian crown, holding an orb and baton on each claw, in the chest exhibiting a shield with the monogram “PII” for Dom Pedro II of Brazil, with double integral ring to hang, likely to wear on a collar, measuring 61.80 mm (w) x 68.54 mm (h), with toned silver and missing the tip of the tail, otherwise fine.

Footnote: The traditional symbol and crest of the House of Braganza is a green wyvern representing Saint George, patron saint of Portugal. This symbol can be found in many different monuments in Portugal and Brazil, such as the Monument to the Independence of Brazil in São Paulo and in the palaces of the Imperial family in Rio de Janeiro and Petrópolis.
