Me? - I would place a premium on a 1/2-frame twelve over a 1 1/2-frame twelve, all other things being equal of course.
Dean,
I think that the half frames rarity may result in some increased value on a high condition or perhaps high grade gun. Bill's example was a field used VHE or GHE for which the only extra value might be in weight reduction from zero to maybe a few ounces which to me dose not translate to many, if any $$$.
