44-S Walker... worth submitting? opinions welcome.Grade in

nwcoast · May 30, 2012 2:46PM

Putting the final touches on my first submission and wondering if this Walking Half should go with the group...
I have a handful of other Walking half's and it's tough deciding....
The group has been great in helping me decide on some others so I thought I'd throw this one out there.
Thank you in advance.... and I welcome all opinions....
Grade in at MS65

I would toss her in on an economy submission.

<< <i>I would toss her in on an economy submission. >>

either you're gonna hit a home run or strike out

looks like 65 could happen.

i'm not too good on these sometimes from 64-66

Looks closer to 64 than 65, but could really go either way. IMO just too many hits on both the skirt and the eagle's leg to make it a lock 65.

coinsarefun · May 30, 2012 4:04PM

I will say 64....maybe 65.

MarkInDavis · May 30, 2012 4:18PM

It has really clean fields. Hits on the jaw, sun, and eagle left leg may hold it back. I'd like to see it in hand, but I'd say 64+ or 64 and 65 not impossible.

NewParadigm · May 30, 2012 4:40PM

Nice! It has been dipped. I would say 64...with a 33% chance of a 65.

Tiny · May 30, 2012 6:01PM

Yes indeed I would submit it. To me a Walker looks it's best in a PCGS holder when
they're nice and shinny like this one.

Just Do It 4 sure

Walkerguy21D · May 30, 2012 9:45PM

I agree with the others - likely a 4, but has a shot at 5.
If it had monster toning it would get a 66

lcoopie · May 30, 2012 10:28PM

nice coin

JamesM · May 30, 2012 11:16PM

80% 65 IMO

nwcoast · May 31, 2012 12:19AM

I guess it goes out in the mail with the others today!
Thanks gang. You're great!!!
This, and a few others going out are real nail biters! Coins that make big jumps in price if they cross that line and make the higher grade..
I'll post the results when they hit sincen you've all helped in the process.. Keepin my fingers crossed

grip · May 31, 2012 1:24AM

Nice clean fields.I can see it as a 65.

messydesk · May 31, 2012 1:30AM

michiganboy · May 31, 2012 1:33AM

Go for it! I agree with the others with 64-65ish

Ahrensdad · May 31, 2012 1:45AM

I'd send it in on an economy submission.

nwcoast · May 31, 2012 1:51AM

Since this is my first submission with my new CC subscription, I could even go Secure Plus, though I'm thinking of not going that route.
Looks like it might be tougher to resubmit down the road if my 'borderline' price jumpers don't make the grade first time...
Am I mistaken here?

coinkat · May 31, 2012 9:05AM

I would send this one in- through caution to the wind and chalk it up to the thrill of collecting

I see the chance of a 65 at greater than 50%- not that my opinion means anything

JBN · May 31, 2012 9:52AM

Very nice head detail.

Better than average hand detail.

Given how typically poorly struck the 44-S comes, these nice details will be very much in your favor.

My guess is a 65.

segoja · May 31, 2012 10:04AM

65 the strike is great for the date, luster looks strong and the fields are very clean

downsides skirt hits, the sun, but they are not enough to keep it from a 65

djdilliodon · May 31, 2012 11:49AM

I'm in a good mood MS65

Justlooking · May 31, 2012 12:14PM

I'm on board with 65.

coinman23885 · June 1, 2012 4:56AM

The strike is particularly good for the date, the luster is solid, and the fields are relatively clean. I would grade it MS65. If I were you, I would submit it under the cheapest tier possible.

Elcontador · June 1, 2012 6:15AM

Chatter on skirt lines like this and hit or two on eagle's leg are the norm, rather than the exception on most late date Walkers I've seen in 5 holders, though I'll admit I haven't seen many of them in the last ten years, so it is possible that grading standards have changed.

Imo, the only things that might hold this coin back from a 5 are the chatter on the sun and hit on Miss Liberty's face, which is noticeable. That being said, I'd still submit it. I like the coin.

grip · June 1, 2012 6:32AM

My only concern was also the sun.I still like it as a 5.

guitarwes · June 1, 2012 7:11AM

So close to a 65 from those pics. It's worth a shot, would be a great score if it does 5.

IrishMikey · June 1, 2012 7:15AM

Definitely submit it. If it comes back in a 66 holder you can do a victory dance.

65 is much more likely, however.

Elcontador · June 1, 2012 1:47PM

<< <i>Definitely submit it. If it comes back in a 66 holder you can do a victory dance.

Can't see it in a 6 holder for reasons I mentioned above re why it may not get into a 5 holder. If you can get this into a 5 holder, you've done very well with in any case, what is an attractive coin.

Walkerfan · June 17, 2012 11:38AM

Smooth and clean with a pretty good strike for a 44-S. I think it has a good chance at a 65.

nwcoast · June 21, 2012 9:47AM

<< <i>Nice clean fields.I can see it as a 65. >>

You guessed it........
65 it is!! Cheers and thank you....

RevDrBlimber · June 21, 2012 11:03AM

Congratulations! Those coins look great in a PCGS holder!

prove it........the dipped part.

Congratulations. You clearly made the right call on submitting it.
