Um, I think I need some education here.

chisels are chisels, the beader is not all that rare ,

So, the value must be in the anvils?

and aren't they called something else?

They ain't anvils, they're stakes that are about next to useless without the bed plate bench.

The bead roller is handy, but only to a man who knows how to use it and if there are a set of rolls.
New rolls cost around $70 a pair.

They'll probably wind up in a decorator's shop.

But "We have been told how rare they are and how much they are worth"

I live in the town that PEXTO was in. I can readily find any of that stuff for much less than that. The only tough piece to find is the bench plate.
