  • Russell12Russell12 Posts: 264 ✭✭✭✭

    Not going to upgrade, I like the way worn walkers look, ad now I get to work on other coins. I spent about $1500 for the whole group, VF/XF/AU would have cost $15-20K, so I am happy

    That is a great accomplishment. I love the WLH... Big silver coin of my childhood.... Felt good to have one in my pocket... it was a lot of money for a kid back then... Could get five comic books, or two ice cream sundaes and two chocolate bars.... Lots of buying power then. Cheers, RickO

    Now starts the upgrades to keep your interest alive. Been there done that and it too is rewarding and just as fun.
    When dealers ask what specifially I am looking for .I say everything, every date can be up graded.
