Mikeymus Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 8:49 pm just got this one in today from a ebay auction paid $8.48 for this one. And this is uncleaned to boot. So what grade would this get? And here it is next to my original 1943 from the same minting as this one. I don't think I did too bad netting this one here is a link to the auction maybe the pictures are better than the ones I posted. http://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-ERA-19...p=true&rt=nc Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 9:07 pm Maybe XF-40 DETAILS. I have to be honest with you , did you bid on this coin because of the low price or because you wanted it for your collection ? there are some real nice walkers out there for a few dollars more. JUST SAYIN. Report this Post to the Staff

Mikeymus Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 9:37 pm I got it for the low price but I do know that in this condition it is worth at least $30-$40 bucks. So I think I did pretty good in netting this girl. Or is AU worth more? I still will pick up some hard cases to protect these two Walkers better. Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 9:46 pm Ignore the ugly eye appeal. Grade the coin THEN lower it one step. I can't tell if there's any wear but it could be as high as MS-63. Report this Post to the Staff
Mikeymus Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 03/13/2015 9:58 pm Ok to alieviate any confusion I'll post both coins so you can get a better comparison of the detail of both. Front Back hopefully this helps in a more accurate grade. It does look like the toning on the back of the new coin actually helps to highlight the details on the back.

Mikeymus Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 09/05/2016 8:45 pm Just a little update I was looking at both Walkers a couple days ago and realized that both are error coins. The "cleaned" Walker in fact has a Cud on the obverse while the " ebay" Walker has what appears to be a wire strike on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
