[QUOTE="MercuryBen, post: 4551856, member: 44521"]I've always thought the 39S was an underrated date for Walkers, especially relative to some of the short set dates which go for astronomical prices in high grades. I just couldn't resist putting in a strong bid for this 67+ with rich golden target toning. The strike is excellent as well, with a halfway decent thumb on Liberty's hand (about as strong as I've seen on a 39S) and strong feathering on the eagle. Surprised I won it, I thought it would go much higher since the 39s is tough with nice toning. Perhaps a lot of Walker collectors only pay big premiums for rainbow toning. I personally like nice original golden toning almost as much. I'd love to cross this to PCGS and get a TrueView, but PCGS will probably be a pain and reject it like 3 times before crossing at +, and I don't want to give the + up.
