vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 04/06/2013 8:46 pm I think ms64, but it is harder to see the reverse due to the shadow. Nice half! Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 04/06/2013 10:55 pm At least MS-63, looks to be lusterous and if unbroken around the reverse as nice as the obverse then MS-64. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6383 Posts	Posted 04/07/2013 8:35 pm Maybe MS, maybe AU. It's often difficult to confirm mint state condition on Walkers. You need to carefully inspect Liberty's breastplate and left hip and the eagle's breast and leg to see if friction has occurred. Many a "mint state" Walker has actually been graded AU-58 when a TPG detected slight luster disruption over these critical high points. If mint state, this one appears relatively mark free and potentially worth an MS-64 grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 04/07/2013 8:47 pm The obverse looks great however the breast of the eagle has a break in the luster. I took a new pic to show it better. I paid AU-53 money at an auction. I can take better pictures if needed. Report this Post to the Staff
