<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 4905878, member: 92655"]I went back to my Redbook and brushed myself up on these. I think that the photo you see in your Redbook illustrates the new design that took place in 1836. The design changed halfway through the year and the photo you see is the new design. The most telling change was that “50 CENTS” was spelled out. The older design simply said “50 C.”.... Your half is the old design that is not illustrated in the Redbook..... I don’t see anything about your 1836 that causes me pause. I think you are comparing your old design half to a photo of a new design half and that’s throwing you off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
