This is a very nice coin, with a sharp strike both sides. Brow over Eagle's eye and breast feathers show up well, rims perfect. Two small dings above 'US' in 'PLURIBUS'.
Has a few tiny blemishes, but they are hard to find, and would not show up 'in hand'.
It is this sort of coin that makes you wanna collect LWH's.
Superb.
MS67.
The highest I have ever graded a coin here, in the CCF.

dave700x, I was new to this photo thing when I named it. Now I know not to do that. If I do another it won't be as easy. Thanks for being nice about it.

Two small dings above 'US' in 'PLURIBUS' I agree. Outside of those two dings, the obv is almost perfect. I didn't even see those dings until I took the photo. Quote:

Well, here it is. Thanks again for playing along. I'll wait a while to post some more. I have learned a few things along the way. I'll try not to give anything away next time.  |

Exceptional coin ... great photos Thank you and thank you. This is one of those that I liked even more after I looked at the photos. I have to check but this may be the best struck Walker that I have (for now). I'm starting to feel like it would be more fun to take pictures of other peoples coins. That way when I see the imperfections it won't bug me. There are tiny little tick marks that just don't seem to be there when using the loop. |

That is a keeper! Very nice. Seems as if I've been off a point on most of the walkers I grade from photos, got to look at more of these at the next show or auction I attend. Thanks for sharing.

There ya go! Sometimes, I will hold a different view to the TPG's. NONE of my American coins are slabbed, nor do I have any intention of ever getting them slabbed. However, I ain't got NO American coin as good as a 67 in my collection. I am envious! And yours has to be a Walker! Fabulous design! |
