<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 469920, member: 15309"]I am driving at the fact that both coins have photos that show a strike that is not consistent with an MS66 grade yet in both cases Heritage states in their description that the coins are well struck. Heritage has difficulty in showing details of strike on toned coins. Admittedly, the Walker is probably more difficult for anyone to image showing the full detail, but I bet Brandon Kelley could do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I never bid on that coin, I think it is hideous.
