Hi Steve,
If there is any trace of rub on Liberty's breast, the coin would grade AU-58. If that area is fully lustrous, then I'd say at least MS-63. The final grade choice depends on how strict the grader wants to be about those tiny pockmarks in the right obverse field. They're in a prime focal area and could be grade-limiting.
A very nice Walker overall.

Looks like a little scratch on the eagle's neck that doesn't detract. Nicely detailed, esp. her left hand. Great coin overall.

Nice coin. I'm thinking it's MS62-MS63. It would probably be higher if it didn't have the little nicks on the right side.
