Very well struck coins will show a full outline of her hand and thumb, but it will take a bit more work to locate one like that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

The things I look for in a Walker: - Luster - Eye Appeal - Strike That coin appears to have a decent amount of all three. You'll tend to get a little better with a 65, which can easily be had for under $100 for many dates. You want nice, swirling luster. A dull Walker is kinda ugly.
