I would say MS65 based on these photos and I find the toning acceptable although a bit darker than I generally like. I also find the band of white (untoned) on the reverse interesting and likely evidence of NT.</p><p> </p><p>Larger photos might reveal wear on the Eagle breast (I am assuming a soft strike although the 42 generally has a pretty good strike).</p><p> </p><p>By the way, I like Physics Fan and Paul's Walkers both. I think with Walkers, if you place too much emphasis on toning, you will miss out on some good examples. These are not Morgan Dollars, Jefferson Nickels or even Franklins. Doesn't mean there aren't some beautiful toned Walkers but the beauty of the series is first and foremost the design. If toning is your point of emphasis, like Paul's, it will be a frustrating series to collect. Or at least one requiring a lot of patience.:desk::headbang:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
