I'm just doing this for practice, but I'll say f-15.

 

F15

 

I concur with the above and put it at F+

 

Looks like a strong Fine coin to my eye.

 

Nice, original F-15

 

Fine 15 outline of the breasts is a little to smooth as well as the breast feathers. Great coin however

 

I would call it F-15 as well.

 

I liked it at FV-20 but then I notice the rim ding right off Ms Liberties finger tips and yet another rim bump a little higher up...those will cost you and I now have to drop it down to Fine-15

The Walker has good honest even wear and has that nice dove gray toning through out. Wonderful year, even greater D mint mark along with nice easy on the eye surfaces.


good luck and Happy Collecting

 

Thanks for the opinions guys. Was debating between F and VF myself. Holding it, I think it's closer to VF whereas in the flatbed scanner it looks closer to F. So maybe F-15 is about right cutting the difference. Thanks!

 

still a nice chunk of change in either grade.

 

VF details due to the rim ding at 11:30 on the obverse.
