This one has some pretty flashy mirrors with a little wisp of toning. PF-66 CAC, bought from Legend. It's a keeper.

I can see why that would be a keeper. Totally sweet-looking, low-mintage half.

Nice looking coin, if only she hadn't cut her finger. It looks like a bleeding finger how that little bit of toning is LOL. Beautiful coin if you ever don't want it I can PM you a mailing address

Thanks @braddick They represent a nice value in PF-66 and 67, and the CAC pops are relatively low. For this 1941, CAC shows 249 coins in PF-66. The CAC price guide lists the coin at $715.00 vs. the PF-68's at $6,800.00!
Wow, that's sharp!
Not even a blemish!!

Surprised that was sold by legend

I'm looking at this coin with my 10x, and I can't see any imperfections whatsoever....I mean zero. If it said PF-69 on the holder, I wouldn't question it. Hard to figure what PCGS is looking at. I know they like them with the original cellophane patina.
Very nice!
It's a blast white keeper!
Very attractive!!

Proof Walkers are fun to have.
Sometimes when I for the life of me can't find a blemish on an early proof coin will then focus on the rim. The squared rims may contain a blemish that will knock the grade down.
I am not seeing anything of the such on your Walker, yet in hand, you will be the best judge of that.

I love the proof Walkers. I’m still waiting for the right 1936 PF to complete my proof set.
Can you post a picture of the coin in its slab holder. Easier to see how the coin actually looks.
Keeper, keeper, keeper.
Very nice one!
Collector, occasional seller
Coin looks flat out PQ!

And the mystery is solved. Lady Liberty went out the morning this design was drawn to have a smoke.
I agree. Nice WLH proofs are one of the best bargains in PR until the gaga grades of 68 and the lone 69 imho.
Really nice coin. Have to add more of these 36-42 proofs to my collection.
@airplanenut Let's see , we have standing libs, walking libs, twenty libs, and now Smoking Libs!
That is a super beautiful WLH..... even with the distracting wisp of tarnish.... I could live with that. Cheers, RickO
@ricko, It's got really deep mirrors.....Can't really see the toning streak in hand...It just looks brilliant. I'm wondering if these dies were freshly polished and this was a relatively early strike....The mirrors are deeper than other WLH's I have seen, and the AW is entirely missing from the rev, evidence of enthusiastic die polishing?
@Eldorado9 .... The picture show incredible mirrors, and you say they are even more impressive in hand? Wow... Such a beautiful WLH Thanks for the added information. Cheers, RickO
Wow! That's a coin to own! Nice pick-up!
