I'll say 67

I can't see anything holding it back from a 67. beautiful Walker.

 

No I didn't. That's why I added a smiley
;-)

 

Oh, must've missed it

 

And the reveal......

Another soap bar. At the price I paid on this, I laughed when the bidding ended on the eBay auction.

 

I think the strike holds it back from 67, but it is definitely a 66 all day long.

If you paid a 65 price, then you did very, very well on this gorgeous coin.

 

Well, I paid less than $48.00 not including shipping on this bad boy. I was shocked the bidding did not go higher on it. Then it got stuck in Orlando for nearly 4 day's and I was worried that it got lost. But it showed up yesterday.

 

Great score!

 

The perfect coin in the perfect slab. I love those slabs!!

 

Nice, I like the Walkers, good price too

 

What's going on in the right obverse field? Are those scratches on the slab?

 

He said on another thread that it's die polish lines

 

Totally different looking image. I agree with the 65 grade.

 

Those are not scratches, it's a patch of die polish lines. When I first got it in hand, I thought it was all scratched up there as well. After looking at it through magnification, the lines are all raised above the surface.

 

What a steal! Congrats.

 

65

 

64...good strike.

 

Nice coin, very good buy at that price. I cannot agree with the 65 grade with the marks on her right thigh.
