Does this coin look dipped to you guys? It just doesn't look quite right, unless the pics are the culprit. I dunno.

It looks OK to me as a BU, common-date Walker. Luster looks good so if it has been dipped it doesn't look like much harm was done. I seriously doubt it would grade MS-68 at any reputable grading service, but based on these photos it could easily be MS-64 or better.

If the price is right it might be a good pick-up!

The details aren't strong enough to be certain that it hasn't been cleaned. It's Not a reputable TPG

What would you say was a good price for a mint state Walker?

SHAFTA9: Mint state common date Walker after 1940 -- probably $30-40. If it grades out 64 or better, then the price starts to go up.

I agree with Grogan; if it's an original MS-63 or better $30 to $40 is a good price. However, it could still be a slider AU-58 and it could still be a cleaned coin. If the seller offers a decent return policy then I'd be inclined to take a chance in that price range.
