What wonderful gift did the postman have for me today?

This just showed up this afternoon! A very tricky coin to get a good photograph of. Enjoy!

Proof 65 Walker... NICE
I've actually never seen a proof walker, so this is my first...
Very nice coin!

 

Beautiful..so that's what they're supposed to look like

 

Very beautiful, Congrats!

 

Really nice. Proof Walkers are tough to image. I have several that I just gave up trying to catch their real look. A proof with color is a nightmare to me.

 

I have seen others at shows, but this is a true beauty!

 

did you give postman a bonus tip?.

 

Very nice coin!

 

Thats great

 

amazing coin, i can almost guarantee it looks better in hand! With less than 75,000 (dont quote me on that number) minted in ALL years, that really is a nice coin!

 

yowsers! She is one beautiful lady.

 

wow, I don't think I've seen a proof walker either! very nice!

 

What a beautiful coin , defineately on my want list .

Might I ask, what the price was, and what these go for?

 

I was going to say something witty and clever ....but all I can say is WOW

 

Wow! Absolutely B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! :thumb:

I've wanted one of these for quite a while now, but can't seem to afford them! :rolling:

 

Oh Miss Liberty, boldly walking into the future, will you marry me? :hug:

You know guys, In the grand scheme of things I think you get a lot of coin for your money with these things. This coin has a retail number in the $650-$700 range these days... even in proof 65.

 

Yeah I was thinking about $700 is about right. I would probably settle for a 64 if I decide to buy one of these. Proof walkers have been on my "out of reach" want list for awhile. I take it 42 is not a tough date for these (relatively speaking of course)?

 

I like it because it's a wartime date... but yes, it is a relatively common date.
