<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Victor, post: 334193, member: 5454&quot;]Thanks.&nbsp; Yeah it is a funny thing the way I go about my collecting.&nbsp; I at first dabble by getting a few coins to look at.&nbsp; This all started about 15 years ago when I got a Walker in change at the local store.&nbsp; The cashier made my change.&nbsp; He studied the Walking Liberty half dollar, shrugged his shoulders, then gave it to me in change.&nbsp; I put it in a &quot;safe place&quot; down my cellar on my workbench. At the time I was a home improvement contractor specializing in historical restorations.&nbsp;&nbsp; Fifteen years later I bought a second Walker on eBay for stupid money at the time just to study it as a specimen.&nbsp; That reminded me of the one I had received in change 15 years prior.&nbsp; I started to look for it and never could find it.&nbsp; I have a garbage can next to my workbench that never gets enough trash in it to empty.&nbsp; It&#039;s always about a third full.&nbsp; I got mad that I could not find the Walker I knew I had put in a &quot;safe place&quot;&nbsp; Ha Ha, so I dug through the trash.</p><p>There it was, stuck to the bottom of a plastic lid I threw away.&nbsp; It CAME SO CLOSE TO GOING TO THE TOWN DUMP!&nbsp; Well if luck were my guide I decided there and then to start a Walker collection.</p><p>Walking Liberty half dollars are abundant.&nbsp; Every coin show you go to, every dealer&#039;s shop you enter; you can always find them.&nbsp; But now with the silver spot above $17.00 a troy oz. I think it&#039;s prime time to get walkers before they go through the roof for pricing.&nbsp; Last weekend I got 34 Walkers at $6 each.</p><p>The time is now to get the Walkers at any grade for $6 each or less if you can manage that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
