I bought this coin years ago, in an SEGS holder. I crossed it to a PCGS holder, at one step down in grade. What do you think is the proper grade for this better-date Walker?

XF45. I could see this in an AU50 holder though. Looks to be some luster left.

The coin was graded AU-50 by SEGS when I bought it. It crossed to XF-45 at PCGS and I think it's solid for that grade.
Thanks for the comments!

I agree with the XF-45 consensus here. There's lots of nice detail where the Walking Lib's are usually worn or smooth. I wonder what happened to the Eagle's breast? It appears slighted dented in the photo. Overall, very nice "Walker"!
