Pics are rather flat, unsure of luster. Strike is often so poor on these that it is practically impossible to grade without close-ups and a strong sense of luster. Head detail is great, breast appears to show wear (?), so I'll say AU-55.

from looking at the coin in hand, id guess MS62 give or take, but I'm no expert

I would say AU53/55. A lot of wear on Eagles Breast and leg.

Wartime walkers were struck in huge numbers, and for this reason, are fairly easy to obtain in nice condition.
This is the reason why I own an example in AU58.
For this grade, typical weakness on eagle's eyebrow, breast anf left leg, and Liberty's right hand.
Looks about right for AU 53/55.

I'd agree with Sel 691 at AU-53.
The picture makes it difficult to tell if there is luster or if it is all that solid gray coloration. I know you mentioned it has luster but please understand that with the photo we are shown it's really tough to tell. It almost looks dipped because that is what so often happens with the luster disappearing.

I see it at AU53 also. A little too much wear and a little short on luster for me to go 55

AU 55 based on breast wear on the eagle....definitely not mint state yet

AU-53, no mint bloom around the center obverse, should be some remnants in MS...still a nice looking coin. Lightly circulated. |

Looks AU-55 to me, but better pics showing unbroken luster might sway me to MS.
