Looks like a fingerprint on the reverse 6:00, would like to get one slabbed for that price.
I'll go MS62

You will always get that variety. I used to post high grade Walkers for people to look at and guess the grade. I would get AU55 to MS66. All coins were MS67 in PCGS slabs with CAC stickers. One good thing is nobody said cleaned yet.

I dont get that variety when I post my coins, it's usually within a point or two of the actual grade. I went back and looked at some of your older threads, tpg22, and it looks like most people were guessing gem or better, almost all the guesses were 65 or higher. The AU grades were outliers at best. Walkers are much tougher to grade than Morgans, too, partially due to exposure to the series, and partially due to strike issues in the later-date walkers. These images are excellent, and large, but many people aren't used to identifying a slider. Here's why I say slider;   Circled areas are high points exhibiting frost breaks, and I presume, in hand, luster breaks. Note the chatter and discoloration in the fields, that is not all bag wear, that is a mix of bag wear and light circulation scratches. Edited by chasingtailbar

The talons and the point of the neck on the obverse are what do it for me. I'd reluctantly have to call this coin circulated. Won't say I dislike it at the price, though. It's got a ton of eye appeal for the grade.

I think you overpaid for this coin. The title says Gem which means MS65 and this one has signs of circulation.   |

Yeah, it's difficult to put much into the way the that sellers describe coins on that site. I've been trying to judge mainly by the pictures, because it seems that about half of the coins listed on that site are "RARE KEY DATE!!  |
