More coins for my PCGS set...working off eye appeal and not slab number.

I liked this one because it was frosty, sharp and clean. I paid quite a premium for it. I think the dealer knew he had me. Happens sometimes.

I bought this one because I thought it was crisp and lustrous. Just a little bit of noise in the right field. Love the OGH.

Starting my fifth box of 20 for walkers now even though there are only 65 in the full set.

Both nice additions.

5th box of 20, wow! That is quite a stack!

@Walkerfan.... Wow... both are really nice... however, that '42D is really special..in quality, appearance... and for me... a great year. Cheers, RickO

Great additions to the collection; good choice!

Walkerfan

@ricko thanks, my friend.

You have mentioned that before (about 1942).

What makes that year special for you? If you don't mind me asking.

ricko

@Walkerfan....I do not mind at all.... it is my birth year.... And I love Walkers.... used to be pocket change at one time....really could make annoying noise in class with a few in the pocket... Cheers, RickO

I like the 47....they can come really deeply frosty sometimes, as I'm sure you know.
I happen to prefer thick frosty luster to flashy luster.
I realize I am probably in the minority but I don't care.

Both look great, nice luster, Ken.

Thanks, guys. Yes, I believe that the luster on the 1942-D will be frosty, as well. It just looks different from different photography methods. Also, the 1942-D is VERY difficult to find nice and is the rarest Denver short set coin.
