If you read my other posts you know that I recently bought a group of coins from an estate. I bought all of these coins based on my opinion of grade & whether or not they had been cleaned. There are a couple of these that I think I might not have paid fair market value for. I'm not going to disclose what I paid, but if the forum opinion of grade/condition varies greatly from my own I'm going to contact the seller & make things right. I'm hoping I'll get some good opinions of grade, what problems you see & if the coin is impaired(cleaned, damaged, etc) what percentage of non-problem value would you have paid. My pics are not the best....if there's something I think the pics don't show I'll point it out.

These pics are close but this coin is "brighter" in hand.

Looks like this one makes AG-3, towards the lower end of that grade. The reverse has light hairlines, acceptable IMO for a low-grade Walker.
Rest in Peace

i don't know if I would call this lower end AG personally because of the mostly full rims on a weakly struck date, but it has been cleaned IMO.

I agree with Shadow somewhat and Jaobler to.
SO
put it on a fence does it fall Low AG or very low G
I guess it all depends on how hard and which direction the wind is blowing.
Just trying to be funny because I really don't know.

Might be a slider G4 because the rims are mostly there.
$60-70 give or take

I had this one as a toss-up between AG & G, & was leaning towards AG. Although there aren't any really distracting hairlines I believe it has been cleaned based on the color in hand. I'm considering leaving it on a windowsill for a couple months to see if that might improve it's appearance.
