Nice head detail, separation of the thumb on left hand, some chatter on Liberty's left leg, nice feather detail on the eagle...MS64. Nice coin all around!

MS-66. Strong strike, beautiful luster, nice thumb, gorgeous fields, yes there is some chatter on the leg but I bet it is the sort of thing that really only shows up with photography/lighting and really is not noticed in hand. If I was building a type set this would be the coin for that walker type 2 slot!

My first thought was MS63 but it could be a strong case for MS64. Nice Walker!

It's obvious that this coin is uncirculated based on the fields having unbroken luster.. but what causes the darkening on the left breast?
And, agree with the others.. beautiful coin with a very nice strike!

I am pretty sure that is the flattening of the inside of the slab making actual contact with the the left breast. It happens with Kennedy's cheek alot. Really nice coin!
