What do you think? Older coins didn't have as much definition on the robe, I don't think.

Not sure if it's uncirculated and/or cleaned.

3 weeks ago I posted a 1918S. Close, but not the same coin.

Seller wants (and bills it as) uncirculated (choice), just FYI.

Hard to get a good deal on early Walkers, imo.

Certainly not a choice Unc. Surfaces look a bit lifeless, possibly over-dipped at one point. AU53

with everyone above (mid-AU), but to me, it does not look cleaned, it just looks lightly toned, and good eye appeal to my eyes.

I'm guessing LDS with light to no details on her left leg.
Probably dipped at some point and acetone soaked and worked on in an attempt to remove/minimize the carbon spots?
I could see a straight grade of AU-53...I wouldn't pay UNC for it though.

Old cleaning perhaps? I agree with a AU-53 grade. No way this is "choice".

Just shy of mint state. I'd put this one at AU-58.
