It's a Walker day
Box of MWR halves: 42D; 3 40%ers $7.00 of loose halves: 1 40%er. Ended my 5 box skunk streak. The Walker was Spray Painted Silver or dipped in...
@19Lyds I have two free grades at ANACS. I live so close I could drop them off and pick them up. Should I go with ANACs for the 74D or PCGS?
