Very nice looking key date 50cents, I think this one just barely misses a grade of XF, I would grade it VF-35. Just a little more detail on the Eagle's breast and Liberty's too, and this would be XF for sure. Nice looking coin that looks to have nice original surfaces.

Hi 50¢,
We're all getting a lot of practice on Walkers. That's a good thing!

I'd call this VF-25 and choice for that grade. It needs more central detail I think to grade any higher, but it's probably worth more than an average VF. Color is very nice and there are no significant defects. Excellent photography, as well!

I have some Walkers, How much of the breast plate has to be worn to be called Fine?

For Fine-12 the outline of Liberty's right breast will be 1/3 to 1/2 complete. There will be no outline on the left breast.

I guess NGC could have gave it a little bump because of the date and MM The breast line also looks more complete in hand also.
