Just 2 nice looking straight graded walkers I just got trueviews on. No harm if you're wrong, no prize if you're right. No, you can't see it in hand.
This one has about all the replies its going go get. Oh and yes I bought these raw.
More luster than the TV lets on
AU55

Huge luster as the TV implies
MS64 - not really sure what holds it back from a 65.

MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    That 1918 WLH is a beautiful coin. Would have to say at least a 65 for that one. Cheers, RickO

    55 (reverse is a technical 53, but the obverse and luster give it a bump), and 64.

    I'm very concerned at the number of MS guesses for the first one.

    It's pretty low stakes and I normally only post MS coins.

    I guessed MS 63 on the first thinking it may be similar to the later date S mint coins. Thinking weak strike instead of wear. My first thought was AU thou
