    Everything this guy is writing in this auction is complete hogwash. A 1942 Walking Liberty Half is no key date, nor is it rare, and what kind of toning is on that coin. It would have to be the uglieast one I've ever seen. The coin is no better than VF and looks like someone poorly painted the coin.

    Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/1942-WALKING-LI...0QQihZ021QQcategoryZ41100QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    It already has a bid-this is unbelievable. This guy is just fishing for suckers. The sad part is that this coin may get up to $20-30 when all said and done. He's even charging $5.75 for shipping.

    That's exactly what i thought! lol, actually my exact thought was that someone had overdipped a well circulated coin and then smeared [human feces] on it.

    Sorry about the brackets above, but what i actually thought isn't so approriate.

    What a piece...

    Looks like someone will get a $20-$30 lesson in life. Too bad , maybe it was an original MS70 from SGS and the guy took out his displeasure on it !

    toning

    It looks like they toned it with a pencil torch. I can't believe it's going so high. Most of the common walkers and franklins are going for around melt if they are lower than MS or AU.
