One advantage to replacing worn coins with higher quality is it builds my 90% stash.

The 1938-D is climbing in price? For years, it was stagnant. Much against my father's wishes, I spent $28 on a fine years ago. It was the only one missing from the collection. He NEVER bought a coin. The collection is long gone, EXCEPT for the 1921 p, d and s and the 38-D. THOSE I am going to keep.

I had the good fortune to complete a set (date and mint mark) of Walking Liberty halves a few years ago - all are in the G-4 to VG-8 range.....not an outstanding set, but a complete set.

A lot of sellers tend to undergrade "junk" silver - so it's pretty easy to find F-VF pieces at "average circulated" prices (but how I hate that term!).
I've got one of every Philly mint, plus the "S" mints in years where there were no Philly coins - 1923, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1933.

I absolutely hate the term junk in reference to Walkers, Bens, Barbers etc. I really dont like it for the moderns either. The halves dimes and quarters I do sell for melt I simply call melt. Rupre, definitely a good start. The 21 pds and 38 d are going to be the four that kill you for AU. I would suggest getting them now before they increase even further. And since we are showing off 38 Ds

I have to show off my special 38D. I found it roll hunting. Paid a whopping 50 cents for it.

Nice 1916 and 1938 D. I am looking to upgrade my 1938D soon. I have been at my local coin shop quite a bit lately looking through their 2x2 boxes for walkers to complete my set. I still need about 15 more date/mint mark but it's getting there. Keep us updated on your sets as well.

38d is one of those key dates but easy to find kind of like the 1921 peace and also not too pricey. The 1921 p,d,s walkers are tough!
