<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1874979, member: 27832&quot;]I wouldn&#039;t see it as $13.38 per half. I&#039;d see it as $9/half as a base price -- if you&#039;ve got a source for non-slick Barber halves at melt, I&#039;d love to know about it -- plus maybe $10 for the album, giving a base of $622. Then maybe $30 over base for the 1913 (but the wear pattern makes me think it&#039;s bent), $50 for the 1915, $70 for the 1914, $40 for the cleaned 97-o, $40 for the cleaned but somewhat less worn 96-s. That&#039;s within $60 of the asking price, and there&#039;s probably enough value scattered among the other better dates to easily cover that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, that&#039;s no reason not to bargain. It&#039;s not a <i>great</i> deal, although it&#039;s probably fair, but I wouldn&#039;t jump on it. Then again, I&#039;m cheap.</p><p><br /></p><p>My set&#039;s comparable to that one, although I&#039;ve got a smattering of F or better examples, and I think all the keys are filled in now (with some rather slick). It was fun to put together over time as a &quot;bargain-hunting&quot; project; getting it all in one fell swoop would be, well, a different sort of fun, I guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
