MS65* - if you look at the hand it's hardly formed - I don't think either grading service would go above 65 with that weak a strike - the colors are gorgeous - obviously an endroll coin.
I think it's a technical strong 5, but if it looks anything like it does in those pics, PCGS/NGC would slap that thing in a 67 holder in a heartbeat. The toning HAS to bump that coin. JMO

Amazing folks now guess grades with the "*" as well. But I guess it's expected because people also count the "*" as part of the populations too. There could be 500 at a certain grade but two thus far with the "*" and they call it a pop2. When many previous ones graded could be worthy. Got to love marketing. And don't get me wrong I have nothing against the designation whatsoever. Just thinking out loud folks.

I have to agree that the weakly struck obverse central devices limit the grade. I think with the bump that it'll go 66 with a likely *star* designation at NGC. Superb coin and one worth owning without hesitation.

You should see the coin in person.... This Walker is a very high end coin, and except for acouple of minor ticks would have probably be the 2nd ms68 in the 1945-D Walkers.
both coins are attractive but Puff's 67 is clearly better. There are some 45-D coins with great strikes...like the one Puff has...toning...again the one Puff has is tough if not impossible to beat. The other is attractive, but not worthy of a grade higher than 66.

Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.

And it can be yours - -
It looks like it got two bumps for the color.

Here's my 1945-D in PCGS MS67, notice any difference in the quality other than toning?
