I'd say 65 on the Walker, and I'm out of my depth on the other two... nice pieces...

65+ on the WLH.
65+ Walker
66+ Norse
no clue on 3rd one.
64 for the Walker, 65 for the Norse, and 67 for the Canadian dollar.
Edited to add: Well, I was (embarrassingly) a point too high on the last go-around so I will be a bit more conservative on these...
1929 Walker: MS64.

At the risk of looking stupid relative to all the other guesses, I'm guessing AU58 on the walker based on the images provided.
No clue on the Norse, but I like it also - beautiful toning pattern!
Love the Walker. I feel it would be held back to AU58 due to wear on high points. Love the toning.
Love the Norse Medal toning. not in the least familiar with strike and wear statistics with so I would guess MS66 on grade.
Nice color on the Canadian Dollar, but won't offer a grade as not familiar with the series.

Walker --- AU58.
Norse --- MS63.
Canada $ --- SP66.
sorry about the delay in posting the grades, I got sucked into the first day of the NFL season, dawn till dusk, baby.
while most of the guesses for the Walker were higher, it does have luster breaks on the highest points. that isn't readily seen in images and often looks just like a softer strike. this particular coin was originally in a small, white ANACS holder and same-grade-crossed to PCGS.
the Norse Medal is one I bought from member Tmot99 maybe 15 years ago and had re-holdered for the TV's. when he first sent it to PCGS we both thought it would grade higher but upon seeing it in-hand I understand what they saw, a number of light ticks and unstruck planchet flaws. it's a great design, has a pleasant original look and fits well with the direction my collecting tastes have moved towards.
the Canadian Dollar is part of my "when I get bored" collection which started during my stint working in a Coin Shop. we'd get a lot of those cased Dollars from 1971-1973 and some were vibrantly toned so I started to buy them. now I have a little hoard of silver from our neighbors up north. I've found that the 1973 dated coins are more difficult to find with color on both sides or even with color that isn't muted and plain. as other members will testify, though it looks "AT" and poured onto the coin, the color comes from long term storage in the packaging. the boxes that held the coins were lined with felt and 30+ years of storage like that works magic!!
I'll post another group of 2-3 coins and some esoteric exonumia, I hope I don't bore anyone with these. stay safe.
Walker --- AU58
Whew! Stuck my neck out on that one....
