A similar one sold online for $350+.
 

Just because one sold online for $350 does not all of a sudden mean "they are all $350" the internet has ruined prices for everything.. I see and deal with this on a daily basis .. "Oh but I saw it sell on E-Bay for this" when in reality it is not even close or near that amount.. the internet has ruined prices for Civil War relics and many other era relics. The internet is a wonderful tool but it has caused irreversible damage to a-lot of artifacts. When someone see's something sold on E-Bay and they have the same thing they automatic think "wow i got something rare"..
 

Early transfer ware is, however, highly collectible.
