    It now resides in my collection. While not my best toned Walker it is part of my toned late date set and is indeed lovely. Do I get any money for revealing this?

    Very nice 1943 date/mint mark set.

    The eye appeal is strong.

    The highest graded one is also the rarest.

    Nice 1943 and 1943-S.
    The 1943-D has a significant gouge in the open obverse field but less noticeable because of the toning.

    I do not know where these tarnished Walkers come from... none of mine have even the slightest tarnish. And, for the most part, they seem to have the same colors.... Color me confused.... Cheers, RickO

  • ElmerFusterpuckElmerFusterpuck Posts: 4,799 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @Ricko, just because yours don't 'tarnish' doesn't mean someone else's doesn't.. I have an almost complete raw set of Walkers in a blue Whitman album in grades from VF to AU. Some of the AU coins have developed nice rainbow edge and rim toning, some have remained unchanged (still white) and others have have toned on one side only. Same with the raw silver Washington album. Colorful "tarnish" can and does happen on its own, natural and otherwise.

    10-4,

    @ElmerFusterpuck ...I understand that....my comments are directed at this particular type of tarnish.... and wondering what type of storage/environment has promoted it on so many Walkers. Cheers, RickO

    Vividly toned, yes.
    Best Walkers ever? No, at least for me anyway.
    I'd need to see date rarity too, not just eye appeal.

    Not sure how you can forget, since it takes some work to start a thread and upload images. Didn't you get enough private offers the first time around??
