The Eighth 33-S WLH in PCGS MS67.

JBN

The population for this entry date to the late date set had been at 7 since at least late 2004.

The 8th appeared in the population count recently, and is offered for sale at Heritage next month.

1933-S 50C PCGS MS67

Not the absolute bold obverse strike as seen in the beautiful Wheat Collection colored piece, nor the wonderful piece from the top-drawer Kallenburg collection (which now resides in the #1 Forsythe Collection), nor my GBW piece. Nice reverse strike - you can count most of the individual feathers at the top of the thigh on the eagle's left leg.

It is not one of the two CAC pieces - the Kallenburg piece and the Simpson pedigreed piece.

My review of pictures of the other 67s results in my completely unofficial ranking of 5th or 6th place out of the eight coin group.

I'll be curious to see what it fetches.

Pretty coin.

With this issue one must look at the luster and surface preservation, as the strike is usually 'all there' and this piece appears to be no exception in the strike dept.

Luster and surface preservation are also quite good on this example IN THE FIELDS. I'm not sure that I like the marks on the head, breast and the torso of the devices but this DOES appear to be a 'NICE' superb gem.

With little other opportunity to acquire one again anytime soon----it should be a STRONG consideration for the Walker specialist, if nothing else. It will likely bring 10-11K, regardless.

JBN,
It looks like a really nice piece. Would love to see it in person.

But i think i would rather have yours.

Thanks for the link. Incredible coin

tradedollarnut

looks like a great coin

Whoa. A very nice piece. What's not to like? Strike, luster, surfaces, eye appeal...very nice.

I'll bet it fetches a great price. $10k+

Definitely has that 'WOW' factor.

Purdy. I like my MS Walkers white. That one has just enough hints of color so you could say it isn't TOO white, but it is still basically a white coin, and I'll bet it's a lusterbomb.

The coin "pops!"

It's no 'worse' than any of the other superb gems that I looked at in the HA archives. Many of those 67s I didn't like, either due to the toning, strike or some field abrasions.

For me to spend 10K or more it would have to be tops in ALL THREE of those categories. Otherwise, I'd be happier with a really nice 65 or 66,

I understand and agree. IMHO, there are likely several dozen high end 66s and 65s that will look nicer in hand than the subject 67. You will also save a pile of money.

If you wish, check out the 33-S TruView on the Forsythe set and the 33-S pictures in my set.

Unfortunately, the Wheat specimen used to be viewable on the Pinnacle Gallery page (along with the Sounder Set, Schultz Set, and the 'set to end all sets' GBW), but these sets' pictures are no longer accessible on the updated Pinnacle site. It is a shame you'll not see this nice colored example.

Also, see TruView for the Simpson piece - slab 06666522.

You will see that there are MS67s that do stand out.

That being said, I'm still curious as to what this piece will bring at auction. It was recently 'made', so the owner likely looking at a payday. I don't expect it to be hung up with a big reserve. The price realized will be a nice barometer for the lower range of the date and grade's price range. I like the $10-11K guess provided earlier.

The Simpson piece is stellar. Your coin is right up there next to it and is SOLID on all three levels (strike, surf. pres. & luster) and very worthy of the grade and price. My goodness you have some nice coins----your 1920 MS 66 and 1919 in MS 67 are just wonderful. I can't believe that I never looked at them before---thanks, for bringing them to my attention. I don't care for the Forsythe piece, although it looks crisp and clean----it's just a bit dark for my personal taste but it appears to be original and MANY like that.
