I recently found this beautiful Walking Liberty half that I forgot about.1946S MS64. Now I just have to find that 1893 Isabella coin! Ughh. Anyways, please post your "Walkers" too! Thanks in advance.
I think there are several "post your Walker" threads, but you know what? I don't think you can have too many Walkers or too many Walker threads!
I bought this in 1982 or '83 from Boozer & Weaver. They were one of the first dealers to sell all their coins with ANACS "certs." Or "papered coins" as some called them. This was certified as 63/65 so later when PCGS slabbed it as a 64 it sounded about right. I can't say I was too impressed with the rattle or that bit about sending it to someone to be pre-graded or pre-approved or whatever it was they called it. I really liked Boozer & Weaver. I guess they did alright too as I got a price list from them one day saying they were both retiring and taking their wives on a world cruise.
I am early on, basically just starting, my Walking Half set. @ksparrow and @AcesKings those early date ones are more difficult than I thought they would be and your 1917's are nice! Kudos to both of you guys. Here is my newest and most likely last coin of the year as we have a "don't buy anything for yourself after Turkey Day" rule: My current set, including a couple of 21's slabbed: Ignore those Frankies poking through...
