Message:: [QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 24865036, member: 101855"]I have always greatly admired the Walking Liberty Half Dollar. I think that it is best of the "American Renaissance" designs, and that includes the St. Gardens $20 gold Adolph Weinman was the best and most practical of the Renaissance designers. Given the right settings, his design stood the best chance of resulting in a well struck coin. I have thought about doing a "short set" (1940 to 1947) set of Walkers, but I know I'd lose interest. I have the Proofs, and I really admire them. The 1936 is my favorite. [ATTACH=full]1595088[/ATTACH] I would like to be around some family for Christmas, but it just didn't work out. My wife would love to be with her nephew and family, but it would not have worked out if we had gone to all the trouble to get to Connecticut. They caught Covid just before the holidays and were in the restricted mode at Christmas. Hang in there Mountain Man. You're a good man, and I wish your health issues were better.[/QUOTE]
