65 beautiful walker

 

MS-64. I wanted 65, but the soft strike of the eagle's breast says no.

 

That is sun reflection, not a soft strike. The strike is average to slightly above average. 1946 D is a notoriously weak struck date, as is ‘46 S. Dies were at the end of their life expectancy.

 

Well, in that case, MS-65.

 

That’s a honey. I like her in gem, myself. There’s too much glare in the photos for me to say how high up in gem.

 

1 stop lower in exposure. Sunny day, and the coin is a total luster bomb.

 

MS 65...nice luster!

 

Stop trying to up my grade.

 

PCGS, probably got a MS64, but it seems like a weak strike to me, but maybe it is the lighting and not the coin. Her hands are almost not there and it isn't from wear.

 

The year causes a weakness, the sunlight makes it difficult but I went a 66 on her.

 

66, beautiful.

 

Notorious weak strike date/mint, but it is so sunny today, I can’t get a picture without light saturating it.

66

 

MS65

 

Pretty coin! I'm guessing 64

 

65

 

Awesome rims...wow! Is it in an old rattler...? Have seen more softer breast strikes than better, so rolling the dice on a 66.

 

66 if the luster is there.
