1917-S WLH (Obverse Mintmark) Raw Slightly tougher date, This one is a little funky on the reverse, has nice rims though. -Cut these pre-20 Walkers a little slack when you grade them.. I'm stretching her to an 08, what say you guys?   |

VG10 to F12. The gunk/toning/discoloration on the backside might be a problem.
I give the pre 1923 coins some slack. A lot of the details that show up on later dated coins were never even struck up on the esrly issues.

I think 08 is stretching it a bit. A G-06 looks about right.
I just picked up one of these recently too. I can't remember what mine grades at, I just remember it to be problem free and cheap, ~$6.50 at my LCS.

You have a generous LCS, $6.50 is almost melt  I think this one may have been stored in a drawer on its reverse and slid around a while the way it's worn on the reverse.. Looks nice in hand though, good color, I don't think this is a problem coin. |

VG-8
I'm wondering if a dip in acetone might help the reverse?

Nah, I think it gives it character.. Not sure what acetone would do to nearly a century of finger oils etc.. Organic, right? |

Organic, right? Well.... it will not hurt it. Read up about using acetone, post found in the Search if you have questions. VG10 |
