Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2528 Posts	Posted 09/09/2026 5:56 pm Could someone familiar with Half Dime Valentine varieties lend me a hand with this? I'm trying to figure out if this is a normal or a FS-302 V-5 1845/1845. I feel like I can see something very faint on the top left of the 5, but I can't tell if that's evidence of the repunch or damage. Thanks! Description from Al Blythe's book: https://archive.org/details/compgui...n67/mode/1up "The pendant is directly centered over the 4, and the shield points to the flag of the 1." Unfortunately these are all too worn to see.

I am not the someone you are looking for as I do not know a thing about Half Dimes but did a side by side comparison with a pic you provided a link for. I do not think it is the RPD you are referring to but I could be wrong, to me it just looks like extreme circulation flattening and damage. The repunching is quite strong on the other numbers of the variety and would think we could see more evidence of it if it were the RPD. Maybe someone who is familiar with this series will chime in with the side by side comparison.
