Chaotech Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 05/02/2008 3:16 pm I've been roll searching Kennedy Halfs recently, I found a Kennedy half that has a very large buldge protruding from each side in the very same spot as if something was in between the layers in the middle... Is this a common error? If so whats the type of error(terminology)? Is it worth anything? I'd be happy to get $10 for it hehe... Edited by Sap 05/03/2008 01:00 am Report this Post to the Staff

Need to see a pic to be sure. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.
