[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 101168, member: 2972"]The grade NGC gave this coin is MS 66. I have the coin in-hand and agree with the grade. As others have pointed out, these coins are noted for their weak strikes. This shows on the obverses in lady Liberty's left hand and in the eagle's left wing and leg. I posed this to show that grading Walkers is tough, even from good photographs, and that weak strike is often mistaken for wear. This coin has absolutely no wear whatsoever and only a very few marks. Take care...Mike[/QUOTE]
