Each lot in Heritage's new Continuous Internet (CI) auctions close at a different time (currently 35 seconds after the previous lot).
Available lots can be accessed from the home page, www.HeritageCoins.com , by choosing the "Post Auction Buys" link under Recently Closed Auctions.
All Heritage auction results are posted at Heritage's award-winning website, HeritageCoins.com.
