Pretty good strike for a 41-S, nice molten silver luster.. the lines in the field are die polish lines my camera picked up.

MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    It is a pretty good strike for a 41 s. I think it may go 64 with a shot at 65.
    Skirt lines a little weak, but fields and sun look great.

    I wouldn't expect to see anything but a beautiful Walker when I opened this thread. And it is! WHOA ! I know first hand how tough this particular date is with details like this. Very well done my coin brother !!

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Looks like a very nice strike, 65 at least.

    Are the graders influenced by strike? I thought that conventional wisdom was otherwise but perhaps the Walkers are looked at differently or it is just that a coin with a very nice strike like the one here gets some bonus eye appeal points to boost its grade?

    I think it's a nice combination of strike and luster :)

    Walkers are really nice looking coins. I found a 41 S once that turned out to be a 41 S/S RPM 2

    Yes, strike is a factor when assigning a grade.

    If there are no hidden hairlines on it, then MS66.
