    If y'all wanna guess the grade feel free if not I'll post it here. I cracked it from an old ANACS slab and resubbed it raw to PCGS.

    If guessing, don’t click the pic since the answer is there. :)

    It's probably a 65.

    Toned nicely, but I'm thinking a 64.

    Spectacular. I can see why you speak so highly of it.
    I'll guess 64, not that it matters.

    Absolutely stunning, I only wish it was kept in its original older holder....but then that is just me.

    I understand. I would've if CAC accepted ANACS holders.

    Congratulations. Tougher short set issue. Appears very lustrous.
    Pic is nice quality - still hard to tell what is underneath. Don't see any major noise.

    my guess is 66 pic doesn't disclose grade either????

    When a coin is this nice and brings you so
    much pleasure, the grade is meaningless.
    The slab in this case helps to protect and
    preserve the coin. Thanks for sharing.

    It came from an ANACS MS64 Slab and was graded by PCGS at MS65. Thanks everyone!

    Not crazy about the images. But it looks like a sweet coin. MS65 feels right.

    It deserves a Trueview.

    My first two thoughts came almost simultaneously...
    Great old white small holder ANACS toning
    64 in the ANACS holder would be 64+/shot 5 today

    Beautiful Walker....looks like a 64 to me. I love the toning and it probably looks even better in hand.

    I just noticed the TrueView........BEAUTIFUL coin!!!

    I would have guess 64. I would have given it a 65+ if it wasn't tarnished.
