I won't promise to post any more Walkers () but just for a change of pace here's a common-date Peace dollar, in an ANACS slab. Who wants to risk their reputation on this one? FYI, "UNITED" on the reverse is somewhat weakly struck and is washed out in my photo.

Don't mind if'n I do ... besides the only reputation I have is a bad one. Since this is a common date, only a fool would send anything less than a perceived MS63 in for slabbing. The coin looks nice overall with few distracting marks. The obverse is well struck and the only spot with a weak strike is the spot you mentioned. The devices are nice and frosty and the fields appear to have some mirror ... not common on a Peace dollar!

He steps out onto the limb, no safety net to catch him should he fall ... MS64PL.

I'm going to hazard a guess that ANACS called it 65, not PL. That firm is tough on Prooflike designations.

It looks like it's in an older slab(white background), so I'm going with MS64.

My grade is MS-63. It looks like there are some distacting dings on the left side obverse field.

MS65 the cheek, brow, and eagle wings are clean and a few scattered bag marks in the fields are not too distracting plus it looks like it has really nice luster

MS 65 obverse, 63-64 reverse. I don't have anything from ANACS in my collection so I am not familiar with how tough they are. Obverse wins the day so I am going to guess MS 65.

Yep, ANACS calls it a 65. I'd say it deserves that grade for luster and for the scuff-free surfaces, but the strike leaves something to be desired. I might have downgraded it to MS-64 due to strike.

I agree with SeatedNut that it would be foolish to send in a low-end BU 1923 dollar for grading. However, graded coins like that do exist! I may have to find one to post, just to keep everyone on their toes....
