Hard to fault this one.
I am glad that it was photographed 'raw'.

I have to admit: - I have trouble grading Walkers that are 65 or higher, especially from screen shots.

MS-65 at least, and perhaps higher, but I am unable to say how much higher.

I am normally a confident grader, but I am all ears (eyes) in this case, if another CCF'er can help (educate) me with the higher grades, when it comes to Walkers.

I meant to post the NGC result but I guess I didn't ...
I was disappointed with the AU58 grade they gave it so I sold it on ebay for $38.00.

Yeah I don't see any discernible wear on this. I'd give it a 65. It would suck to have bought it thinking it was a 64 or 65, and then get that result.

Looking at it closer I guess I could argue that the luster on the eagle breast is possibly missing and rhe feathers look a little bit rubbed perhaps. Miniscule though.

I think that some collectors would have considered a re submit with another TPG.

apparently all the shadowing is hiding something we cant see in the photos although there is an area though on the right obv field that looks like circulation wear.
