I really like the relative matte finish on the early Walkers, 1916, 1917, 1918, etc. Minor design revisions were made early on. I’m slowly working on this early date/mm set. The ‘21 coins are obviously the toughest. Post some Early Date Walkers.

Nice set! I'm doing those too, except in mid circulated grades (VF-20 thru XF-45). I'm only lacking the two varieties of the 1917-S, but this set has taken years to build. I also count the 1933-S as part of the set.

@ElmerFusterpuck that set is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!
Really nice WLH sets... an old favorite of mine... Though I have not built a set. I have acquired some over the years though... Cheers, RickO
Totally agree.
I love Walkers!
Finished mine a few years ago. Might be time to upgrade a few! They are in a dansco album currently with the 21 D and 21 S still entombed in the plastic.
The early WLHs absolutely have a different look than the latter issues and I adore those early coins. That 1916-S WLH of @ElmerFusterpuck certainly looks familiar! I love these coins.

It should be, you sold it to me years ago, a very nice addition! It graded XF-45 with a green bean. I have yet to see a decent 16-S in XF since then.

1921 D PCGS VG08. Bought this from G.R. Tiso back in 1996 for $125.
I recently finished an album set with a few extras.
This one was too nice to just forget about in the book so I had it graded.

I've liquidated a few circs, but I have saved back a couple just in case I pursue rebuilding. Fore some reason the 1917 and 1920 were difficult to find in attractive xf, at least in the look that I and Elmer choose to pursue.
Great series to collect. My Dad left me a shoebox of about 50+ WLHs, mostly circulated dates from the 30's & 40's. I decided to complete the set and was fun to pick up the missing pieces at coin shows. Mostly AG - G early dates to AU & MS later dates. Easy to find coins that weren't messed with.
Love Early Walkers! @ThreeCentSilverFL and @ElmerFusterpuck Those coins are just gorgeous! I am getting more and more addicted to Walkers, and you guys are not helping!
Really exceptional sets and coins featured above!
Here’s my modest Dansco circulation album. It’s a work in progress.
Mostly assembled through searching 90% Silver bags.
