So the correct answer here is MS66.
I was right!

But I wanted to be wrong.

Regarding the lines, I noticed them, but thought they were benign since as you said none of them affected the coin details. It may have affected their grading, although I did not consider them for my own opinion.

No matter what, she is still a beauty.

100% die polishing lines. I don't think they figure into the grade. There are random ticks that keep it out of 67 territory (66 CAC is great and it certainly is a looker). There is a hit on her elbow and marks in the field above IGWT, specifically above the N in IN and G in God.

I wonder if NGC/CAC settled on MS66 due to those die polishing lines?


they are not considered in the grade. although MS67 is not the highest possible grade. I am surprised it at least did not have a + for strike.

is that a CAC bean on that holder?

I was perusing Greysheet retail and decided to check this out. MS66 at $435, MS66 CAC at $550, and MS67 at $1,250.00. With that sort of jump, I'm sure the graders are looking really hard before giving out 67s.

Still a gorgeous Walker!
