Ben, Donald L. Pasley book Early Half Die Varieties 1794-1836 fourth edition/first printing $51.95 is this a good price to pay for this book ? Bruce.
Yes, it sounds about right, have you checked Amazon.com? I recall paying like $75 for mine. There is another book available which offers basically the same information, but I can't remember for sure (maybe Bust Half fever) right now... Take Care Ben
Bruce: Not a bad price, but you may be able to do better with the third edition, edited by Parlsey. The pictures are clearer, but Parsley updated the info for the 4th edition. I usually use both editions when I have a problem id'ing a variety. The third is easier to use a magnifying glass on the pictures, also much better paper.
