jdheyne Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 05/07/2006 1:33 pm Hello all. I picked a 1853 Seated Half that Breen's refers to as a blundered one. I do not have the breen number with me right now. (Edited out stating I would not be able to provide pics, pics are down lower) I do not have a reference books yet on the Seated halves, so if anyone could help me out as to the rarity or value, it would be appreciated. Thanks! Jordan Edited by jdheyne 05/07/2006 9:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 05/07/2006 1:53 pm Hi jd Breens lists the Blundered 1 as a very rare R-6 at least at the time of printing of the Breens catalog, I have no price guide for these either. Rick Report this Post to the Staff
jdheyne Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 05/07/2006 3:47 pm I love Breen's... a lot of good material... but just a little outdated. They need to have an updated version. So R-6 is pretty good, correct? Next would been extremely rare, then unique? Report this Post to the Staff
jdheyne Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 05/07/2006 6:11 pm Got good pics... Some of the stars appear to have some sort of doubling. Is this anything special? And at the second star on the right, there is another die crack: Edited by jdheyne 05/07/2006 9:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff
