Hidalgo Valued Member United States 216 Posts	Posted 05/08/2023 7:05 pm I was wondering what condition this Walking Liberty half dollar might be. At first I thought it was BU, but when I looked at the reverse, the eagle's chest feathers (underneath the neck) are smoothed out. See the attached photos. What grade (estimate) would you assign to this coin? Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by Hidalgo 05/09/2023 2:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95360 Posts	Posted 05/09/2023 10:53 am it would be far better to remove the coin from the 2x2 then get better images of this. These are far too blurry. It is possible that your camera cannot focus on the coin due to the 2x2 covering. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95360 Posts	Posted 05/09/2023 12:34 pm WOW! much better images! Now for to wait for some better folks at grading to have a look, (I'm not that great at grading yet - so I watch and learn) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18649 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 10:12 am AU details (polished) the reason you are seeing the flatness on the higher devices, on both sides, that appear to be almost melted is due to the polishing.
