<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fretboard, post: 712867, member: 19765&quot;]I&#039;ve been trying to get some Walking Liberty half dollars together, not so much for a set or anything but just b/c it&#039;s one of my favorite designs.&nbsp; I went to my favorite coin store a couple of weeks ago and he has around 6 slabbed Walkers that are mostly in the MS63 to MS64 range and I looked at them and they are terrible looking.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also I&#039;ve bought a few slabbed coins that don&#039;t look that good and seem to have gotten moisture in the slab or something and it messes the whole grading up in my eyes.&nbsp; The example I&#039;m using captures the head fairly well so I will leave it.&nbsp; Now keep in mind that as far as the devices go there are special areas like the date for one which is a very strong date but it makes me ask, don&#039;t they look at the coin as a whole or only certain parts?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Another thing is this obviously has a cud looking thing on lady Liberty&#039;s face, I mean it could be wear but whatever it is it certainly detracts from the coin IMO.&nbsp; What&#039;s up with this grading stuff?&nbsp; Some of the slabbed coins I&#039;ve seen just don&#039;t make the grade in my book.&nbsp; Anyone?</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the ebay number to see the original pic 200390320161[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
