Got my 1935 S Walking Liberty that I talked about a few day back I got from
David Lawrence Rare Coins off eBay. Their picutres or rather scans leave a little
to be desired but still could tell it was a nice coin. Got it today and y'all see
what you think from my poor pics.

    Great looking coin there! I have gotten some coins from DL recently and have been very satisfied.

    That's a nice acquisition at that grade as it's at least a technical MS-64.

    That certainly looks much nicer than the 35S walker in NGC64 that I acquired through one of the DLRC online auctions some years ago.
    There were no returns for auction coins, so I sent my coin into NGC for a grade review, as there was no way this coin was a 64. They dipped it (I mean conserved it) and reholdered it with the same grade. It now looks almost good enough to be a 63.
    I do have other coins acquired through DLRC that I am much happier with (been a customer since ~1990), and I chalk this up to being my fault - buy the coin, not the holder, there are no bargains in numismatics, if you don't have a good photo, don't bid, etc etc.

    Tiny,

    From your photos, it looks like it has nice luster, which is something that is difficult to tell from David Lawrence's scans. Hard to tell too much more but if you like it in hand, that's great. Enjoy it!
